GRANDMA'S HUSH PUPPIES



Grandma's Hush Puppies image

My grandparent's used to have a Fish Fry at their house about once a month. Grandma always put the hush puppy batter together while grandpa sat on the back porch and fried them with the fish in his big frying cooker. You just can't have a Fish Fry without these wonderful hush puppies. This recipe makes about 15-20 hush puppies.

1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk

Steps:

  • Pour vegetable oil into the fryer of your choice. Allow it to be getting hot while mixing.
  • Mix the first five ingredients together in a large bowl.
  • Add the last four ingredients and mix well.
  • If the batter isn't the consistency of pancake batter, add a little more flour to thicken or a little more milk for thinning.
