Begin by preparing the batter. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
In another small bowl, combine the plant-based milk and apple cider vinegar to create a vegan buttermilk. Let it sit for about 1 minute until it thickens slightly.
Add the vanilla extract and maple syrup to the buttermilk mixture, then pour this wet mixture into the dry ingredients. Mix until a smooth batter forms.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep saucepan over medium-high heat until it reaches 350Β°F (175Β°C). Alternatively, you can use a deep fryer if available.
Once the oil is hot, dip each Oreo cookie into the batter, ensuring it's completely coated before gently dropping it into the hot oil.
Fry the Oreos in batches for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to carefully remove them and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Once all the Oreos are fried and drained, dust them generously with powdered sugar.
Serve the Vegan Fried Oreos immediately for the best taste and texture.
