Categories     Dessert

Time 11m

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 eggs
3 1/2 cups milk
1 teaspoon salt
4 cups flour (heaping)
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 cup sugar
10 teaspoons sugar

Steps:

  • Fill a 8 to 10 inch fry pan with oil (about 1/3 to 1/2 of the pan full of oil) and heat to frying temperature.
  • Combine the ingredients in order given.
  • Get a regular cooking funnel. Put your finger over the funnel spout; fill the funnel with the batter.
  • Start letting the batter funnel out in a criss-cross until all batter in funnel is gone. Batter will come together and cook until golden brown in about 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side. remove and top with what you want (when cooking make sure you make the batter cover the whole bottom of the pan--just keep criss-crossing until all holes are filled in).
  • Repeat with remaining batter. Makes 8 to 10 large cakes.
  • Toppers for the cakes after cooking: Dust with powdered sugar or powdered sugar mixed with cinnamon. The carnival also uses canned pie filling such as apple or any flavor you want.

These funnel cakes were a disaster! The batter was too thick and the cakes were greasy and undercooked. I ended up throwing them away.

Not bad! I've had better funnel cakes, but these were still good. The batter was a little runny, but the cakes cooked up okay.

These funnel cakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but other than that they were great. The batter was easy to work with and the cakes cooked up quickly.

I was hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a great baker, but it was surprisingly easy! The funnel cakes turned out delicious and were the perfect treat for my family.

I've made funnel cakes before, but this recipe is by far the best. The batter is so light and fluffy, and the cakes cook up perfectly every time.
