Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs, then add the milk and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking until smooth and well combined. The batter should be slightly thicker than pancake batter.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan or skillet to about 375°F (190°C).
- While the oil is heating, pour the batter into a funnel or a squeeze bottle with a small opening.
- Once the oil is hot, carefully drizzle the batter in a circular motion, starting from the center and working your way out. Create a web-like pattern with the batter.
- Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Using tongs or a slotted spoon, carefully flip the funnel cake and cook the other side until golden as well.
- Once cooked, remove the funnel cake from the oil and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Dust the funnel cake generously with powdered sugar.
- Serve warm and enjoy!
