Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 1 cup cornmeal
- 1 cup self-rising flour
- 3 Tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Wet Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh corn kernels
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 2 Tablespoons oil
Instructions
To Prep the Batter
- Whisk together dry ingredients in a large bowl. Stir together wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
- Slowly add wet ingredients to the bowl of dry ingredients, stirring until everything is just combined. A few lumps are ok — try not to over-mix.
- Chill batter in fridge for 15-20 minutes so it will be easier to work with. While the batter cools, you can heat up the oil over medium low.
- When the oil is hot enough to fry, remove the batter from the refrigerator.
