Hushpuppy Ingredients

Method

Hushpuppy Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

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

  2. 2

    Add Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the chopped green onions.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

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

  4. 4

    Fry the Hushpuppies

    Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the hushpuppies from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
