Drop tablespoon-sized batter portions into the hot oil in batches.
Cook for 4-5 minutes, turning until golden brown.
Remove, drain on paper towels, and serve immediately.
Baked Method: Preheat oven to 425 F.
Grease or line a cookie sheet.
Spoon tablespoon-sized batter portions onto the prepared sheet.
Bake 15-20 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
