Funnel Cake Recipe
Quick and easy homemade funnel cake made with six simple ingredients in about 20 minutes, no funnel needed.
Ingredients
- 2 large eggs room temperature
- 1 ⅓ cup milk room temperature
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 ⅔ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- powdered sugar
Instructions
- Heat at least 2 inches of oil in a deep fryer or cast iron skillet to 375F.
- Mix the eggs and milk together until light and slightly frothy. In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients together.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until the batter is completely smooth.
- Fill a pastry bag or funnel, or spouted measuring cup with the batter. Place a finger on the bottom hole to prevent the batter from spewing out.
- Place the bag or funnel over the oil and allow the batter to release in a random, but mostly overlapping circular patterns. As soon as it is browned and floating in the oil, flip and fry for about another 45 - 60 seconds. Place on a wire rack lined with paper towels.
- Top with powdered sugar and enjoy hot!
Notes
Funnel cakes that are greasy or have raw insides usually stem from incorrect oil temperature. Keep an eye on the temperature of your oil between each batch for the best results
