Time 14m

Yield 14

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup shortening (such as Crisco®), or more as needed
2 cups milk
3 eggs
½ cup white sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
3 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Put enough shortening in a deep skillet to fill about 1 1/2 inches and heat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Mix milk, eggs, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl; slowly add flour, while continually mixing, until batter is smooth. Transfer batter to a squeeze bottle or funnel. Working quickly, squeeze or funnel batter into the hot oil, starting in the center of the skillet and moving bottle or funnel in a spiral shape.
  • Fry funnel cake in the hot oil until lightly browned, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer funnel cakes to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon.

I had a hard time getting the batter to the right consistency. My funnel cakes turned out too thick and dense.

I'm not a huge fan of funnel cakes, but these were surprisingly delicious. The cinnamon sugar topping was the perfect finishing touch.

I've tried many funnel cake recipes, but this one is by far the best. The batter is light and fluffy, and the cakes cook up crispy on the outside and perfectly tender on the inside.
