Yield: 8 servings
Ingredients: 1 quart oil for frying, or as needed; 1 large onion, diced; ½ cup white sugar; 2 large eggs, beaten; 1 cup self-rising flour; 1 cup self-rising cornmeal; Note- the recipe calls for self-rising flour & cornmeal, but we used non self-rising and added 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt to each cup of flour and cornmeal as a common ratio per AI. (It is easier to just combine the flour and cornmeal first then add 3 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to the combined 2 cups)

Instruktioner

Gather all ingredients.

Heat 2 inches oil in a deep saucepan (We used the Fry Daddy instead) over medium heat to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).

While oil is heating, mix together onion, sugar, and eggs in a medium bowl. Blend in flour and cornmeal to make a batter.

Make rounded hushpuppies by using a metal 1/4 measuring cup. Drop them into hot oil and fry until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.

Serve hot and enjoy!

Anteckningar

Note for future reference- the hushpuppies were difficult to round before dropping because they seemed to have too much liquid so they flattened out a bit. The only liquid was from 2 eggs and diced onions so we should try to squeeze out some of the liquid from the onions by wrapping in paper towels
