Hush Puppies

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

2

Combine Wet Ingredients

In another bowl, mix the finely chopped onion, buttermilk, and egg until well combined.

3

Combine Mixtures

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

4

Heat Oil

In a deep skillet or heavy pot, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

5

Fry Hush Puppies

Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

6

Drain

Remove the hush puppies from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
