Method

Preparation

  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 add the milk and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a smooth batter forms. Ensure there are no lumps.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).

  2. 5

    Prepare Funnel Cake Straws

    Using a funnel or piping bag, drizzle the batter into the hot oil in long, thin strands to create 'straws'. Fry until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes on each side.

  3. 6

    Drain Excess Oil

    Once golden, remove the funnel cake straws from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.

Serving

  1. 7

    Add Toppings

    In a small bowl, mix the powdered sugar and cinnamon together. Dust the fried funnel cake straws with the cinnamon sugar mixture while still warm.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Serve the funnel cake straws warm for the best taste. Enjoy with your favorite dipping sauce if desired.
