Best 5 Sweet Hushpuppies Recipes

PAUL PRUDHOMME'S SWEET HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, pepper; mix well, breaking up any lumps.
• Add chopped onions, green peppers, green onion tops and egg, stirring thoroughly.
• Note: Mix will be very dry.
• Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours, but no longer than 3 hours or batter will get too moist.
• Shape the dough into small balls for deep frying.
• In a deep skillet, wok, electric frying pan or a proper deepfryer, heat your preferred deep-frying oil to 330F, slip hush puppies into hot oil, turn heat to low and fry in small batches until dark golden brown, about 4 minutes.
• Drain on towels and serve hot.

SWEET POTATO AND BACON HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• For the dip: Combine the sour cream, honey mustard and lemon juice in a bowl and mix until well blended.
• For the hushpuppies: Fill a medium heavy-bottomed pot with enough oil to come 1/3 of the way up the sides. Place over medium heat.
• In a large bowl, mix together the corn bread mix, cornmeal, onions, eggs, sweet potato puree and bacon until well combined. When the oil reaches 350 degrees F, carefully drop the batter by the heaping tablespoonful into the oil using 2 spoons or a small ice cream scoop. Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on a tray lined with paper towels. Serve immediately with creamy honey mustard dip on the side.

HUSHPUPPIES

Steps:

• Whisk together the eggs, sugar, and salt, to taste, in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal and flour. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until incorporated and the batter is thick.
• In a heavy-bottomed pot, (Dutch oven) heat enough peanut oil to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 360 degrees F.
• Working in batches, drop the batter, 1 tablespoon (I like to use a small ice cream scoop) at a time, into the oil, being careful to not overcrowd the pot. Fry until deep golden on all sides, turning in the oil for even cooking, about 5 minutes. Transfer the hushpuppies to a paper towel-lined dish and sprinkle with salt while hot. Enjoy!

GRANDMA'S HUSH PUPPIES

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.
• Take a metal spoon and dip into the hot grease. This allows the batter to just slide off into the grease after putting on spoon.
• Now, take about 1 tbs. size spoonfuls and place into grease.
• Allow to cook for about 5 minute or until golden brown and turn.
• Let cook on other side for about 3 more minute.
• Remove from grease and drain on paper towel lined plate.
• Enjoy with fried fish and cole slaw.

• Drop ping pong ball-sized balls of batter, about 5 at a time, into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Remove hush puppies with a slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining batter.
