Funnel Cakes
Directions
- 1Add 1 and 1/2 cups of flour, 3 tablespoons of sugar, 1/8 of a teaspoon of salt, and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder to a medium bowl and mix. You can use a sifter too if you like.
- 2In a separate bowl add one large egg, 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract, 1/2 cup of milk, and 1/2 cup of water and mix.
- 3Add the dry ingredients, half at a time, and mix until you have a runny batter.
- 4Pour the batter into a smaller cup with a spout. It makes it easier to pour into the funnel.
- 5Heat cooking oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 176 Celsius.
- 6Add about a half cup of batter to your funnel with your finger covering the opening, then remove your finger and allow the batter to fall into the hot oil.
- 7Move the funnel around in circles to distribute the batter.
- 8Allow it to cook for a minute or two and then turn it over. Cook both sides until golden brown.
- 9Remove with tongs and place on a wire rack to dry.
- 10Top with things like powdered sugar, strawberry sauce, chocolate sauce, whatever you like.
