Source of Recipe
Aunt Saunny
fat or oil for deep frying
2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 c. milk
2 eggs
1 1/2 c. dandelion flowers
1 c. flour
pinch of salt
2 Tbsp. powdered nondairy creamer
Heat fat to frying temperature, 350 degrees, in deep-fryer or saucepan. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. In another bowl, beat the milk, nondairy creamer and eggs together. Combine mixtures and whisk just until smooth. Wash flowers and clip off any stems that may remain. Do this quickly so the flowers will not wilt. Pat flowers dry between paper towels. Dip blossoms into batter and fry a few at a time until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and keep warm while frying remaining flowers. Serve immediately when all are done.
Serves 8.
