Funnel Cake Fries

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Prepare the Batter

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until smooth.

2

Heat the Oil

In a deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter into it; if it sizzles and rises to the surface, it's ready.

3

Fry the Funnel Cake Fries

Using a piping bag or a squeeze bottle, carefully squeeze the batter into the hot oil in long, thin strips, creating a crisscross pattern. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

4

Serve and Enjoy

While the fries are still warm, dust them generously with powdered sugar mixed with cinnamon. Serve immediately for a delicious treat!
