Hush Puppies Recipe

Hush Puppies Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Batter

   In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well.

2. 2

   Add Wet Ingredients

   Stir in the finely chopped onion, beaten egg, and milk until the mixture is well combined and thick.

3. 3

   Heat the Oil

   In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

4. 4

   Fry the Hush Puppies

   Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop tablespoons of the batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

5. 5

   Cook Until Golden Brown

   Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until the hush puppies are golden brown and cooked through. Remove them using a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

6. 6

   Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them plain.
