Ingredients




1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly-ground black pepper
4 eggs
2 ounces can baked beans - (16  ea) drained, and
sauce reserved
1/2 green bell pepper chopped
1 small onion chopped
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup vegetable oil

Preparation

1 In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and eggs until well blended. Add the remaining ingredients, except the reserved sauce and the oil. 2 In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Drop the batter by teaspoonfuls into the oil; brown fritters on both sides, turning when the sides begin to bubble, after about 1 minute. When fritters are golden and crispy all over, drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat until all the batter is used. 3 Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, heat the reserved baked-bean sauce over low heat until warm. Serve as a dipping sauce with the fritters. 4 This recipe yields about 3 dozen. 5 Comments: After the fritters are drained, place them on a baking sheet and keep warm in a 300 degree oven until the whole batch is finished cooking. 6 Yield: 3 dozen
