Funnel Cake Ingredients

Method

Salad Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Poached Pears

    Peel and core the pears. In a pot, bring water to a simmer and add sugar, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Add the pears and poach for about 15 minutes until tender. Remove and let cool.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine the organic mixed greens. Slice the poached pears and add them to the greens. Crumble the goat cheese over the top and drizzle with Sour Wench syrup.

Funnel Cake Preparation

  1. 3

    Make the Funnel Cake Batter

    In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, egg, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

  2. 4

    Fry the Funnel Cake

    In a large pot, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Using a funnel or a squeeze bottle, pour the batter into the hot oil in a circular motion to create a lace pattern. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 5

    Serve

    Cut the funnel cake into pieces and serve alongside the salad for a delightful combination.
