How to Make Funnel Cakes

Step-by-Step

Lightly beat the eggs and then whisk in milk and vanilla.
Sift dry ingredients together.
Gradually add dry ingredients to milk mixture, beat til smooth.
Heat oil in frying pan to 375 degrees. (Make sure oil is heated enough or batter or will not cook quickly enough to retain shape)
Using a standard kitchen funnel with a 1/2" hole, drizzle the batter quickly onto the hot oil, spiralling the batter placement so that you have a circular web of dough.
Fry for 45 seconds or til brown , then flip and fry the underside til evenly brown.
Remove the cake from the oil and let drain on a paper towel.
Dust with powdered sugar and then load with the toppings of your choice - enjoy!
