- 1/2 C flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 1/2 tbsp hot sauce
- 1/4 C minced onions
- 1 C grated sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1/2 C buttermilk
- 1/2 C water

Directions
Preheat the fryer. In a mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, onions and cheese. Mix together. Stir in the eggs, buttermilk, water and hot sauce.
