Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, eggs, sugar, and vanilla until well-combined.
- Add the flour and baking powder. Whisk in just until combined.
- Set aside.
- In a heavy skillet, heat the oil to 375F.
- Cover the bottom end of a funnel with your finger.
- Spoon 1/2 cup batter into the funnel.
- Hold the funnel several inches over the hot oil and move your finger to release the batter.
- Swirl the batter into the oil in a spiral motion. I've found going from the outside of the spiral to inside works best.
- Fry until golden brown on one side.
- Carefully flip the funnel cake over and continue to fry until the other side is golden brown.
- Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar just before serving.
Notes
- Any milk from skim milk to whole milk will work. Non-dairy milks, such as almond milk, will also work in this recipe.
- To properly measure the flour, stir or sift the flour to break it up. Lightly spoon into the measuring cup and level without tapping or packing the flour.
- Please use an oil that is made for deep-frying, such peanut oil or canola oil.
- Funnel: If you don't have a kitchen funnel, you can use something like a liquid measuring cup that has a pourable spout.
