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)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 2

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract.

Step 3

Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Set aside.

Step 4

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.

Step 5

Pour the batter into a squeeze bottle, piping bag, or funnel (covering the bottom of the funnel with your finger).

Step 6

Carefully drizzle the batter into the hot oil in a circular motion, overlapping the batter lines to form a large, lacy funnel cake.

Step 7

Fry each funnel cake for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Use tongs to flip the cakes gently.

Step 8

Remove the funnel cakes from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.

Step 9

Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar while still warm.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Yum Yum Funnel Cakes!
