Funnel Cakes

I Adore Funnel Cake

Nothing beats a homemade funnel cake—crispy, golden, and dusted with just the right amount of powdered sugar. Bonus points for cinnamon!

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups flour

  • 1/3 cup sugar

  • 2 tsp baking powder

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • 2 1/2 cups milk

  • 3 large eggs

  • 3 cups vegetable oil

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla

  • Powdered sugar to finish

Directions:

  1. Heat oil in a deep skillet to 350–375ºF. Test with a drop of batter—it should bubble.

  2. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add milk, eggs, and vanilla—mix until smooth.

  3. Pour batter into a gallon-size Ziploc, snip a 1/4-inch corner, and drizzle into hot oil in a swirling web.

  4. Fry 2 minutes until golden, flip, fry 1 more minute. Drain on paper towels.

  5. Dust with powdered sugar and serve hot.
