I usually only make these when having Seafood, but my son loves them and asks for them just as a snack...so, he got his way today...he dips them in Ranch dressing...they have quite the kick to them, as my jalapeno's are quite hot...you can make them without too - delicious either way!

Enjoy!

How to Make Kicked Up Hush Puppies

Step-by-Step

In a bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt & onion powder.
Beat egg slightly and add it to the bowl, along with the milk, onion and peppers. Stir until blended. Leave batter set for about 5 minutes, before frying in hot oil.
Drop into hot grease by Tablespoonfuls. Fry until golden brown. ( flipping occasionally ).
Drain on paper towels and enjoy with a dip or garnished with Parmesan cheese. I normally serve these with fish, but the son wanted some as a snack...Lol!
