Funnel Cake Batter

For Frying

For Topping

Method

Prepare the Batter

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Combine Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then mix in the milk and vanilla extract until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. Let the batter rest for about 10 minutes.

Fry the Funnel Cake Fries

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Ensure there’s enough oil to submerge the fries.

  2. 5

    Fry the Batter

    Using a piping bag or a squeeze bottle, pipe the batter into the hot oil in long strips, making sure to cross them over each other to create a fry shape.

  3. 6

    Cook Until Golden Brown

    Fry the batter for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Serve

  1. 7

    Dust with Toppings

    While the funnel cake fries are still warm, dust them generously with powdered sugar and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.

  2. 8

    Enjoy!

    Serve immediately while hot and crispy for the best taste experience.
