I have been making these for over 20 years, I usually get about 15 patties but it depends on the size of the batter that you drop in the pan, these are better if fried to very brown and crispy, you can make a double recipe, fry them then freeze them on a tray then pop them into freezer bags, then just warm them in the oven to crisp up, they are very addicting and I can tell you I eat half before they even get to the table lol! If you plan on doubling the recipe then make two separate recipes in two bowls, I have doubled the recipe into one bowl and for some reason they just are not as good --- if desired you could add in a slightly beaten large egg and reduce the milk by 1/4 cup --- you will love these! also see my Kittencal's Crispy Potato and Green Onion Pancakes (Latkes) and Kittencal's Italian Zucchini-Mozzarella Patties

SERVES 3 -4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    Chop the onions finely (I chop them about 1/4-inch) then place into a bowl.
  2. 2
    In another large bowl mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder, seasoning salt, cayenne, garlic powder (if using) and a small amount of black pepper; mix to combine well.
  3. 3
    Add in the milk and whisk until thoroughly combined (the batter will be thick!).
  4. 4
    Add in the chopped onions and green onions and mix with a wooden spoon until combined.
  5. 5
    In a large non-stick frypan, heat a small amount of oil to medium-hot, adding in more oil as needed as the patties will absorb too much oil if you add in a large amount of oil at one time.
  6. 6
    Drop the batter from a tablespoon (no more than about a tablespoon!) into about 1/2-inch of hot oil (I slide the batter off using off another spoon).
  7. 7
    Flatten slightly with the spoon or spatula.
  8. 8
    Sprinkle with a little salt.
  9. 9
    Fry until crispy and brown on both sides.
  10. 10
    **NOTE** these tend to hold a bit of oil so drain well on paper towels.

Absolutely delicious!! Definitely a new favorite. Just as good out of the freezer as out of the pan.

    We made these with steaks and cauliflower for dinner and they were delish! My husband tried to get me to use olive oil, but I told him we ought not mess around with Kittencal's detailed instructions - and thank goodness we didn't! These were definitely fantastic - I would love to find a way to lighten them up though, maybe using a light cooking spray instead of oil? Anyway - great recipe!!

    UNREAL. Ok, I love onions, but I never would have thought they could be THIS good. This is the kind of recipe that could make me a vegetarian. A vegetarian who only eats onions. Who only eats THESE onions. Slight alterations based on the commandments of my tongue and what I had on hand: I used one large yellow onion and three scallions, just a pinch of cayenne and both the optional ingredients - garlic powder and pepper. I fried them at about 275-300 degrees for roughly 6 minutes on each side until dark brown (the way God intended!), flattening them a bit before flipping. This goes right into my "Encore" cookbook with much appreciation to you, KITTENCAL!

    Two complaints: Not enough of them; no one to clean my pan. These are delicious. I've been making another recipe, but this is a keeper. I'll double or triple the recipe next time, and have tons to freeze. I've eaten half the recipe today, and I'm busting, but can't stop they are so good.
