No-fry Corny Hushpuppies

Everyone loves hushpuppies! Anything deep fried is magical. So i decided to make a much healthier, yet still tasty version. It worked out well, but these must be served hot!

Ingredients:
2 boxes of Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix (Also used here)
1/3 cup of milk (I just have a preference of soy milk)
1 egg
1 can of corn, drained and dried
1 teaspoon chilli powder
1/2 cup of corn meal
1/2 teaspoon of baking powder
vegetable spray
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a mixing bowl combine corn muffin mixes, milk, egg, baking powder and chilli powder. Once combined add in drained and dried corn. In a shallow bowl add in corn meal. Roll small balls of corn muffin dough into balls (this gets pretty messy) and place in corn meal. Roll the dough in the corn meal to coat. (Since we are not deep frying, we're getting a crunch from the corn meal.) On a baking sheet spray with non-stick spray. Add the corn meal coated dough to the sheet. (The baking powder allows them to be a little airy, but they don't really grow too much in size so they can be placed a little close on the sheet.) Bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Enjoy!

  1. You get your ingredients together before you start cooking? Amazing! I need to start doing that.
