Amish Onion Fritters

 Amish Onion Fritters

Ingredients:

1. 2 cups finely chopped onions (about 2 medium onions)

2. 1 cup all-purpose flour

3. 1 tablespoon sugar

4. 2 teaspoons baking powder

5. 1 teaspoon salt

6. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

7. 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

8. 3/4 cup milk

9. Vegetable oil, for frying

Directions:

Prepare the Batter:

1. In a large mixing bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

2. Gradually pour in the milk, whisking until smooth. Then, fold in the chopped onions until they are evenly coated.

Heat the Oil:

3. In a large skillet, heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. To check if the oil is ready, drop a small amount of batter into it; it should sizzle and start to brown.

Fry the Fritters:

4. Using a spoon, scoop small portions of the onion batter and carefully place them into the hot oil, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon.

5. Fry each side for about 2-3 minutes or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.

Serve:

6. Serve the fritters warm, optionally with sour cream or a dip of your choice.
