FUNNEL CAKES
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Cooking time: 3 to 4 minutes
Yield: 8 to 10 six-inch cakes
Funnel cakes are so named because the batter is dropped into the pan via a
funnel.
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/8 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups whole milk
Vegetable oil for frying
Confectioners' sugar
1. Combine flour, sugar, baking soda and salt in a mixing bowl. Add eggs
and milk; stir to make a smooth batter.
2. Heat several inches of oil in a heavy, deep saucepan to 375 degrees.
Pour batter into a spouted measuring cup or a funnel. Working quickly, pour
batter into fat, shaping a circular design, like lacework. Fry until golden
on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes.
3. Transfer to paper towels; sprinkle with a thick layer of confectioners'
sugar and serve at once. Make additional funnel cakes the same way.
