Amish Onion Patties

 


makes 6 (3-inch diameter patties)




Ingredients

6 tablespoons all purpose flour


1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar


1 1/2 teaspoons cornmeal


1 teaspoon baking powder


3/4 teaspoons kosher salt


1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper


6 tablespoons milk


1 1/4 cup finely minced onion


peanut or canola oil for frying


optional garnish: sour cream and chopped chives


Directions

In a medium bowl, combine flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and pepper.


Add milk and stir until no lumps remain; stir in onions.


In a 10-inch cast iron or nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat about 1/2-inch of oil until the tip of a wooden spoon bubbles when placed in the oil.


Fry 1/4-cup portions, 3 at a time, for several minutes until brown on first side, then carefully turn over and fry until the second side is brown.


Remove from skillet and drain on paper towel for 1 minute, then transfer to a cooling rack to keep them crispy.


Repeat steps 4 and 5 with remaining batter; serve immediately.
