Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until no lumps remain.
  2. Gradually pour in the milk while stirring with a wooden spoon until the batter is smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Fold in the chopped onions gently, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  4. In a large skillet, heat enough oil to create a thin layer, about 1/4 inch deep, over medium heat.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, flattening lightly. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Remove fritters with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
