In a large bowl, whisk together the fine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed.
- 2
In a separate bowl, whisk buttermilk and egg until smooth.

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined; the batter should be thick but scoopable.

Fold in the corn kernels, lump crab meat, and chopped green onions until evenly distributed.

Heat the oil in a deep, heavy pot or Dutch oven to 350-365°F (175-185°C), ensuring there is enough oil for deep frying.
- 6
Using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop, drop batter into the hot oil in batches, being careful not to crowd the pan. Fry until golden brown and crisp, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Transfer hushpuppies to a rack or paper towels to drain briefly; if desired, keep warm in a 200°F oven while frying remaining batter.

Serve hot with lemon wedges and a dipping sauce such as remoulade or tartar sauce.
