CLASSIC FUNNEL CAKE (DAVID VENABLE) RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• Preheat a deep fryer, electric skillet, or deep-sided open skillet to 365°F. Sift together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt; set aside. Then, in a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, milk, water, butter, and vanilla extract. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, and beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and lump-free. The consistency should be thin. Place a finger over the bottom opening of a funnel, and fill the funnel with 1/2 to 2/3 cup of batter. Hold the funnel close to the surface of the oil, making sure not to touch the surface. Then, remove your finger and pour the batter into the oil making continuous circles of different sizes. Fry until light golden brown on one side and then, using tongs, turn the cake over and fry for 45 more seconds. Pull the cake out of the fryer and place it on a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with sifted confectioners' sugar and/or drizzle with strawberry or chocolate sauce, if desired. You can also add fresh fruit right before serving, if desired.

EASY CLASSIC FUNNEL CAKE

Steps:

• Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, whisk the egg with the granulated sugar until pale. Whisk the milk into the egg mixture, then gently fold into the flour mixture. It should be a bit thicker than pancake batter but thin enough to pour. Add up to 3 tablespoons milk to loosen the batter, if needed.
• Heat about 2 inches of canola oil in a large high-sided skillet or pot over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer registers 375. Meanwhile, mix the confectioners' sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Hold a funnel in one hand with your finger plugging the hole at the bottom. Pour 1 cup batter into the funnel. Hold the funnel over the hot oil and remove your finger from the hole, letting the batter drop in a spiral pattern all over the surface of the oil. It will look like lots of individual pieces at first, but as you continue to add batter, the pieces will fuse together. Cook until the batter floats and the underside is golden brown, about 30 seconds. Flip with tongs and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 30 more seconds. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate and repeat to make 5 more funnel cakes. Dust with the cinnamon-sugar and serve with whipped cream and/or fruit sauce, if desired.

FUNNEL CAKES

Steps:

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

• Heat ½" to 1″ of peanut oil in a skillet.
• Pour batter into a funnel or squeeze bottle while using your index finger to stop the flow of the batter. Bring the funnel over the hot oil and release your finger to start a stream of batter while moving the funnel in a circular motion to create spiral-like shapes. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes until golden brown and slightly puffed. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
