Funnel Cake Fair Food
2 C Flour
1 t Baking Powder
½ t salt
1 T Sugar
2 eggs (lightly beaten)
1 ½ C Milk
1 T Vanilla Extract
Flavorless oil
Powdered sugar (to dust the tops with)
In a large bowl add in your flour, baking powder and salt and mix until everything is combined. Next add in your eggs, milk, and vanilla and beat until your batter is smooth and everything is combined. Cover your bowl and refrigerate your batter for 30 minutes.
While you are waiting for your batter to rest and cool, line the bottom of a cooling rack with paper towels. Add oil to a heavy bottom pan about ¼ of the ways up and heat to 375 degrees F.
Once your batter has rested, pour it into a measuring cup and pour about ½ cup of your batter into a funnel and hold the bottom, release your figure carefully and stream the batter in the hot oil using a spiral motion to form the classic funnel cake look. Fry about 2-3 minutes and flip to the other side and fry another 1-2 minutes or until your funnel cake is nice and golden brown. Take your funnel cake out the oil and place it on the cooling rack. Wait for the oil to drain out and dust your funnel cake with powdered sugar. Enjoy warm!
