Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 2 large eggs (beaten)
  • 3/4 cup powdered milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 cup water (may need a bit less or more to get desired thickness)
  • SPAM
  • 1 can spam (cut into stips like french fries)
  • OIL FOR FRYING

How To Make spam pancake fritters ! (and pancake donut balls)

  • Step 1
    Beat batter ingredients together in bowl. Set aside until needed.
  • Step 2
    Open can of SPAM. Cut into three equal slices. Cut each of the slices into strips (about the size of french fries).
  • Step 3
    Heat the oil to 375 degrees.
  • Step 4
    Dip the SPAM strips into the batter (one at a time). Place each battered strip into the hot oil. When golden, turn over. I only do 4 - 5 strips at a time as you don't want to crowd them and they cook quickly.
  • Step 5
    Remove fritters to a paper towel lined plate to drain off oil.
  • Step 6
    *** Any remaining batter can be cooked up as fried pancake donut balls... (if needed: add more flour to thicken dough). Fry them, drain them on paper towels... then shake in a bowl with powdered sugar. MMMMMMMM mmmm good!
