Ingredients

  • White Beans: 1 ½ cups dried white beans (like cannellini or navy beans), or 3 cans (15-ounce each) canned white beans, rinsed and drained.
  • Call-out Box: Dried vs. Canned White Beans
  • Dried: Offers a slightly richer, more "beany" flavor and a firmer texture that holds up beautifully. Requires soaking and cooking.
  • Onion: ½ cup chopped yellow onion (about ½ medium onion).
  • Salt: 1 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more for seasoning after frying.
  • Cayenne Pepper or Chili: ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper, or a pinch of your favorite chili powder for a mild kick.
  • Optional Herbs: 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley or cilantro for a touch of freshness.
  • Egg: 1 large egg, lightly beaten. (For an egg-free option, see our variations section below!)
  • Flour: ¼ cup all-purpose flour, plus a little extra if needed. This helps bind the batter just enough without making the fritters heavy.
