Method
Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Pickles
Drain the dill pickle spears and pat them dry with paper towels.

Make the Batter
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.

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).

Coat the Pickles
Dip each pickle spear into the batter, ensuring it is well coated.

Fry the Pickles
Carefully place the coated pickle spears into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Drain and Serve
Remove the fried pickles from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
