Time 1h

Yield about 28 bites

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Canola oil, for frying
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting
Strawberry Sauce, for serving, recipe follows
Chocolate hazelnut spread, warmed, for serving
2 pints strawberries, hulled and halved
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons lemon juice

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl. In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, melted butter, eggs, granulated sugar and vanilla. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir together until the mixture resembles a slightly lumpy pancake batter.
  • Pour enough oil into a large Dutch oven to come 2 inches up the side. Clip a deep-fry thermometer to the pot and heat over medium-high heat until the thermometer reaches 370 degrees F.
  • Working in batches, use a small cookie scoop (about 2 tablespoons) to gently drop the batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2 1/2 minutes, flipping once halfway through and adjusting the heat to maintain temperature. Transfer to a clean wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet to drain. Let cool slightly before dusting with confectioners' sugar. Serve the funnel cake bites drizzled with Strawberry Sauce and with chocolate hazelnut spread for dipping.
  • Combine the strawberries, sugar and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the berries break down, about 10 minutes. Put the mixture in a blender and blend until smooth. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
