How to Make Funnel Cakes Without a Funnel

Funnel cakes are a classic fair food that is both delicious and fun to make. However, not everyone has a funnel or the time to make this treat the traditional way. If you’re looking for an easy way to make funnel cakes without a funnel, here is a simple recipe that you can follow.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 1 cup milk
• Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.
3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and whisk until just combined. The batter should be slightly lumpy.
4. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Add a thin layer of oil to the pan and heat until shimmering.
5. Pour 1/4 cup of batter into the center of the pan. Use a spoon to spread the batter into a thin circle.
6. Cook the funnel cake for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
7. Remove the funnel cake from the pan and drain on paper towels.
8. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Tips:

• Don’t overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the funnel cakes tough.
• If the batter is too thick, add a little more milk. If the batter is too thin, add a little more flour.
• Be careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook the funnel cakes in batches to avoid them sticking together.
• Serve the funnel cakes with your favorite toppings, such as powdered sugar, fruit syrup, or ice cream.
