Dutch Funnel Cake
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
3 eggs
2 cups milk
1/4 cup sugar
3 to 4 cups of flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
powdered sugar for topping
vegetable oil for deep frying - heat to 375 degrees
Recipe
Beat the eggs, then add the sugar and milk. Sift 2 cups of flour, the
salt, and the baking powder and add to the milk, sugar, and egg mixture.
Mix while adding more flour until the batter is smooth and not too
thick.
The funnel should have an opening of at least 1/2 inch and be able
to hold around a cup of batter. Put your finger over the bottom and add
about a cup of batter. Remove your finger and allow the batter to pour
into the center of the oil. Be careful, the oil may splash!
Gradually swirl the batter outward in a circular motion, or
criss-cross back and forth to make a cake about 7 or 8 inches round. We
used to draw our initials to personalize our cakes! Check it with a pair
of tongs and turn it when the bottom becomes golden brown. When both
sides are done, remove with tongs and let it drip on a paper towel.
Funnel cake is often served with powdered sugar on top. You could
also use molasses, maple syrup, or fruit preserves. Enjoy!
