Yield 6 to 8 servings (about 18 hush puppies)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Kosher salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3 scallions, finely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat 2 inches of oil in a large, deep cast-iron skillet or Dutch oven to 365 degrees F.
  • Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and a good pinch of salt in a medium bowl. Beat in the buttermilk and eggs until combined, then stir in the melted butter and scallions to make a thick batter.
  • In two batches, drop the batter by the tablespoonful into the hot oil. Fry, turning once, until crisp and golden, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels; season immediately with salt.
