Description

Crispy, savory bites of golden onion fritters, perfect for appetizers or snacks.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
  • 1 large egg
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and paprika in a large bowl.
  2. Beat the egg and stir in the milk in a separate bowl until combined.
  3. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just combined.
  4. Fold in the sliced onions, ensuring they are well coated in the batter.
  5. Heat about half an inch of oil in a skillet until it reaches 365°F.
  6. Spoon the batter by quarter-cupfuls into the hot oil, slightly flattening each mound.
  7. Fry each fritter for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  8. Drain the fritters on paper towels to remove excess oil and serve warm.

Notes

For best results, serve immediately to maintain crispiness and consider adding fresh herbs for extra flavor.
