These Onion Amish Patties are always a great idea. Wonderful appetizer or side dish and great with ketchup or ranch dressing.

Steps
Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, black pepper and cornmeal in a large bowl. Mix in chopped onions. Pour in milk and mix well with spoon.
Heat oil in skillet on top of the stove. Drop by spoonfuls into hot oil. Cook on one side until brown and flip to cook on other side. I use a 1/4 cup measuring cup full of batter for each pattie. You can add more oil to the skillet if you need to do so while frying. Makes 10 to 12 onion patties.

Eddie on 2025-04-10 (5 stars): Well I have to say this Central Ky boy and his guest were impressed. They pair so well with fried Catfish. I make my own Tarter Sauce that was wonderful on these patties
