Amish Onion Fritters
These crispy, golden-brown fritters packed with flavor are a must-try for onion-based snack lovers. Perfect as an appetizer or side dish.
Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Preparation
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Add the sliced onions to the bowl and toss to coat.
Cooking
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
- Drop spoonfuls of the onion mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly.
- Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
Notes
For extra crunch, consider adding a little cornmeal to the flour mixture. Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying; a drop of the batter should sizzle immediately. Experiment with different seasonings for a unique flavor twist. To store, place in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to three days.
