Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1.5 cups Milk
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.25 cups Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet or deep fryer over medium heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
Pour the batter into a squeeze bottle, piping bag, or funnel (covering the bottom of the funnel with your finger).
Carefully drizzle the batter into the hot oil in a circular motion, overlapping the batter lines to form a large, lacy funnel cake.
Fry each funnel cake for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Use tongs to flip the cakes gently.
Remove the funnel cakes from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.
Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar while still warm.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Yum Yum Funnel Cakes!
