Ingredients

2/3 c. yellow cornmeal
2/3 c. all-purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Preparation

Combine first 8 ingredients in a medium bowl; make a well in center of mixture.

Add milk mixture to cornmeal mixture, stirring just until moistened.
Over-mixing will cause tunnels and peaks to form in the hush puppies.
