    Funnel Cakes

    List of Ingredients

    1 egg
    2/3 cup milk
    1 1/3 cups flour
    1 Tbs + 1 tsp sugar
    2/3 tsp baking powder
    pinch of salt

    Recipe

    Beat eggs. Add milk and sugar. Sift flour, salt and baking powder together. Add dry ingredients to egg and milk mixture. Beat batter until smooth. This batter should be thin enough to run through a small funnel. Add more milk, if needed.
    Drop from funnel into hot oil (375 degrees), holding a finger over the bottom of the funnel to control the amount of batter released. Make into one of the following designs; start at center of pan, swirling batter outward in a gradually enlarging circle, being careful not to touch circles. Or let batter out through funnel into hot oil into any shape desired, crisscrossing to make an intricate design.
    Fry until golden brown on one side, then flip over using two spatulas. Remove from oil and place on paper towels to absorb extra oil.
    Sprinkle with powdered sugar and enjoy while still warm.
