Hush puppies are like individual deep-fried pieces of cornbread. We skip the deep-frying and bake them in a mini-muffin tin instead. Adding creamed corn and shredded onions adds moisture to the batter and helps keep these fritters extra tender when they are baked, and help to be able to reduce the amount of fat and sugar that would otherwise be needed. These are especially delicious served warm.
