To keep leftovers crispy, reheat them in the oven.

You can filter out any leftover oil and use it to enhance the flavor of future recipes, rather than throwing it away.

More than just a dish, Amish Onion Fritters are an ode to tradition, nostalgia, and the joy of sharing good, home-cooked meals with loved ones. Try them and discover the culinary heritage of the Midwest.The irresistible appeal of Amish onion fritters awaits you if you haven’t tried them yet. More than just food, these doughnuts embody the comforting simplicity of Amish cuisine, which places great importance on every component and rejects the unused. Like my own family, these doughnuts have their roots in Midwestern tradition; this is the kind of dish that is perfect for a cozy get-together or a cold day because of the hearty and comforting flavor they provide.

While these doughnuts are delicious on their own, they are much better when shared. For a traditional Midwestern twist, try them with a hearty stew, a dollop of sour cream as an appetizer, or a fresh green salad or baked beans, gently cooked in a skillet. A tall glass of lemonade or iced tea will round out the event beautifully.
