    Recipe Introduction


    Outside of the American Adventure is a stand which sells these fried treats. The smell is wonderful and the "cakes" are as big as a plate. Try them topped with strawberries and whipped cream.

    List of Ingredients




    1 1/3 c Flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon soda
    2 tablespoon sugar
    3/4 teaspoon baking powder
    1 egg, beaten
    2/3 cup milk, or more as needed
    Oil; for frying
    Sugar, confectioners

    Recipe



    Into a large bowl, sift together the dry ingredients. In another bowl, beat the egg and milk together. Add to the dry ingredients, and beat until smooth. Fill a skillet or pan with 1 inch of cooking oil and heat to a temperature of 375 F. Now cover the small hole of a clean funnel with a finger. Then fill the funnel with the batter. Carefully move your finger away from the hole in the funnel, allowing the batter to flow into the skillet. Move the funnel to form patterns with the batter. Fry until golden brown, about 1 or 2 minutes, turning once with two spatulas. Remove to paper toweling to drain. Place on a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Serve hot. Repeat the process until all of the batter is used up.
