Makes 14 to 18 fritters.
� 1 c. whole-wheat flour
� 1 c. all-purpose flour
� 1 tbsp. baking powder
� 1 tbsp. sugar
� 1/4 tsp. salt
� 2 eggs, well-beaten
� 2/3 c. milk
� 1 cup rinsed and drained hominy
� Vegetable oil, for frying
� Honey or syrup, for serving
Combine the flours, baking powder, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Stir in the eggs and milk just until ingredients are mixed. Stir in the hominy to blend evenly. Batter will be lumpy. Take care not to overstir, or the fritters will be tough.
Heat about 2 inches of oil to 365 degrees in a large, heavy saucepan. Spoon a scant 2 tablespoons of fritter batter into the hot oil, cooking no more than 3 fritters at a time. Fry about 2 minutes on each side. Skim and remove any crumbs after each batch. Serve hot with honey or syrup.
