serves/makes:

ready in:
under 30 minutes

ingredients

1 cup whole-wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 eggs, well-beaten
2/3 cup milk
1 cup rinsed and drained hominy
vegetable oil, for frying
honey or maple syrup, for serving

directions

Combine the flours, baking powder, sugar and salt in a medium bowl.

Stir in the eggs and milk just until ingredients are mixed. Stir in the hominy to blend evenly. Batter will be lumpy. Take care not to over-stir, or the fritters will be tough.

Heat about 2 inches of oil to 365 degrees F in a large, heavy saucepan. Spoon a scant 2 tablespoons of fritter batter into the hot oil, cooking no more than 3 fritters at a time. Fry about 2 minutes on each side.

Skim and remove any crumbs after each batch. Serve hot with honey or syrup.
