Here’s a vegan version of Amish Onion Fritters with updated nutrition information:
Vegan Amish Onion Fritters
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2/3 cup unsweetened plant-based milk (such as almond, soy, or oat milk)
- 2 1/2 cups finely chopped onions (about 2-3 medium onions)
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions:
- Prepare the Batter:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the plant-based milk, stirring until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Add the Onions:
- Fold in the finely chopped onions until they are evenly coated with the batter.
- Heat the Oil:
- In a large skillet or frying pan, heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil over medium heat. The oil should be hot enough that a drop of batter sizzles immediately when added to the pan.
- Fry the Fritters:
- Carefully drop spoonfuls of the onion batter into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon.
- Fry the fritters in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
- Cook each fritter for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Serve:
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve hot and enjoy the crispy, flavorful Vegan Amish Onion Fritters.
