Ingredients
- 2 large eggs
- 2 3/4 cups whole milk
- ½ stick melted unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- oil for frying
- powdered sugar for garnish
Instructions
- Add 4 to 6 cups of oil to a medium to large size saucepot over medium-low heat until it reaches and holds at 375° Fahrenheit.
- Next, add the eggs, milk, melted butter, and vanilla to a large bowl and whisk until completely combined. Set aside.
- In a separate medium-size bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- In batches of 3 add the flour mixture to the wet ingredient bowl and vigorously whisk until it is smooth before adding in the next batch.
- Once combined transfer to a large squeeze bottle with a large open top. In addition, you can do this the original way and transfer the batter to a water pitcher and pour the batter through a funnel directly into the hot oil.
- Whether you are adding the batter through the squeeze bottle or through the funnel you want to add in a total of about ¾ cup of the batter in zig-zag circular motions overlapping the batter to form a large circle.
- Cook for 90 seconds or until lightly browned and then flip over and cook for a further 30 seconds.
- Remove the funnel cake and quickly drain it on a paper towel. Garnish with powdered sugar and serve.
