Long John Silver's Crumblies Recipe

These crispy crumbs of fried batter provide an extra layer of deliciousness when sprinkled on top of a dish.
When you add Crumblies to your homemade mac and cheese, they take it to a whole new level of texture and flavor!
For the best Crumblies, use fresh oil to ensure the perfect crispness every time.
Don’t forget: a quick sprinkle of sea salt right after frying enhances the flavor enormously.

Ingredients
  
  • 1 cup Flour
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • Oil for Frying
Instructions
 
  • In a mixing bowl, blend flour, salt, baking powder, and pepper.
  • These dry ingredients are the base for the crumblies.
  • In another bowl, beat the egg and add water.
  • This will help achieve a smooth batter consistency.
  • Gradually combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing well to avoid lumps.
  • A whisk works excellently for this step.
  • Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F.
  • Make sure there’s enough oil for deep frying.
  • Spoon small portions of the batter into the hot oil.
  • Fry them until they turn golden brown.
  • Once fried, place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
