FAQ
Q: Can I use sweet onions instead of regular onions?
A: Yes! Sweet onions will make the fritters slightly milder and naturally sweeter.
Q: Can these be baked instead of fried?
A: You can bake them at 400°F (200°C) for 12–15 minutes per side, but they won’t be as crispy as the fried version.
Q: Can I make the batter ahead of time?
A: It’s best to fry immediately after mixing for the crispiest fritters.
