These are my rendition of a sweet hush puppy. They are quick and easy to make and are great for breakfast or with coffee. I like them plain, but they are yummy rolled in cinnamon and sugar, too.

Time 40m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

peanut or corn oil for frying
¾ cup self-rising flour
½ cup self-rising cornmeal mix
¼ cup sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 egg
½ cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon cinnamon
½ cup sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • In a bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal mix, sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, beat the egg together with the buttermilk. Gradually add the egg mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring with a fork or whisk until only slightly lumpy. Be careful not to overmix.
  • Carefully drop batter by the rounded teaspoonful into hot oil, and fry until golden brown. Drain and cool on a paper towel-lined plate. Roll balls in a small amount of cinnamon mixed with sugar, if desired, or just enjoy plain!
