Notes
This recipe is made with skim, low fat, or regular milk. I have not tried it with dairy alternatives but believe it would alter the consistency. The batter will be similar to cornbread or pizza dough. This recipe is a very traditional hush puppy recipe and the main flavor is going to be just the amount of onion that you add. If you want to add more flavoring with additional onion powder or garlic powder, feel free.Always remember all air fryers heat differently, it's best to check it halfway through the cook time. Additional Note - if the batter is too runny, you can add an additional 1/4 cup flour; however, we have not had to do this, 3/4 cup has worked fine for ours. Remember the consistency needs to be similar to a cornbread or pizza dough. If it's runny for you, continue stirring and it should thicken up.Updated recipe to add onion and garlic powder.
