Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, mix the wet ingredients: milk and the two large eggs.
- Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring continuously until the batter becomes smooth and well combined.
- Pour vegetable oil into a saucepan, filling the bottom with about 2 inches of oil. Heat the oil over medium heat for approximately 2 to 4 minutes, or until it reaches frying temperature.
- Carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil.
- Fry each side of the funnel cake bites until golden brown, about 60 to 90 seconds per side.
- Remove the bites from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
- Dust them generously with powdered sugar while they’re still warm and serve immediately.
- Repeat the process with the remaining batter until all the bites are fried and ready to enjoy.
