Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups All-purpose flour
- 1 ½ teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon Salt
- 2 larges Eggs
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- To taste Powdered sugar
Instructions
- Mixing the Batter: Start by gathering all your ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients first, and then add the wet ingredients. Stir until smooth and free of lumps.
- Heating the Oil: Fill a deep fryer or large skillet with about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil. Heat it over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is the correct temperature for frying.
- Frying the Funnel Cake: Once the oil is hot, fill a funnel or squeeze bottle with the batter. Hold the funnel over the oil, pouring the batter in a swirling motion to form the iconic shape of a funnel cake. Fry each side for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Draining and Serving: Once the funnel cake is golden brown and cooked through, remove it from the oil and place it on a cooling rack or paper towels to drain any excess oil. Then, sprinkle with powdered sugar and add your favorite toppings.
