- Yields:
-
36 hushpuppies
- Serves:
- 12
ingredients
- 3 cups self-rising yellow cornmeal
- 3⁄4 cup all-purpose flour, sifted, measurement determined before sifting
- 1⁄4 teaspoon cumin
- 1⁄2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons sugar substitute
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free syrup
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons baking soda
- 1 1⁄2 teaspoons salt
- 2 eggs, well beaten
- 1 cup skim milk buttermilk
- 1 cup green onions or 1 cup white onion, minced
- 10 ounces no-sugar-added creamed corn
- 1⁄3 cup white wine, FLAT (NO CARBONATION LEFT!)
- 3 jalapeno peppers, ripe, minced (no seeds unless you want to start a fire in your mouth)
- 2 cups cheddar cheese, finely grated (shredded)
- canola oil (for frying)
directions
- Combine dry ingredients except for baking soda. In another small bowl, combine eggs, buttermilk, corn, and green onion and stir until blended. Add in remaining ingredients and mix well.
- Add baking soda to wine, and stir until flat. Make sure the wine is in a container larger than necessary to hold liquid, as bubbling and rising will occur.
- Combine mixtures and stir just until moistened, then STOP!
- In a skillet or deep fryer, add oil and heat on medium/high or to 375°F.
- Wearing food handler's gloves (or the juice will burn you UP), spoon batter with common tablespoon and gently roll between hands to form a pseudo-cylindrical shape, deposit back in spoon and gently drop into hot oil. Repeat until oil surface is well populated. Deep fry for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Remember to turn them about half way through the process, to brown them evenly.
- Remove to a plate covered in paper toweling to drain.
- In following these directions, you should yield about 30 hush puppies.

Both my Wife and i love to cook, and we love to eat, so our premium membership with this site is a partnership made by the Gods. i am a short order cook by trade, and my Wife is a published movie reviewer. We both administrate our small non profit from home, which allows us to cook more often than other couples, but we still don't have a lot of time to prepare complicated meals.
RecipeZaar is the best for anyone who wants a quick recipe, or needs to learn about a complicated piece of kitchen equipment...and anything in between. :) We LOVE it here!
my sweet Wife has been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. i'm still learning how to cook for Her, so that Her Forever will pace with mine.
i change my user name often. sorry, but i bore easily. oh, and just to warn people, i've donated my hair to locks for love, so it's short now ... VERY short. new photos will come soon.
