Ingredients
- 4 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3 eggs
- 2 1/4 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Oil, for deep frying, (ratio should be 1:1, canola oil to peanut oil)
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Stir in the brown sugar. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the milk and vanilla extract and whisk again. Whisk in the dry ingredients until smooth.
- In a deep wide pan, heat frying oil top 375 degrees F. Hold your finger over the bottom of the funnel or use a funnel cake dropper and fill it with the batter. Hold the funnel over the hot oil and remove your finger then immediately start drizzling the batter into the oil, moving the funnel around to make a criss-cross or scribbly design. Fry until golden brown on one side then flip it over to fry the other side. Remove the funnel cake from the oil with a slotted spoon or spatula and drain on a paper towel. Mix the sugar with the cinnamon and sprinkle the funnel cakes heavily with it. Serve immediately.

At wgp_728_1545493 I am a fifteen year old with celiac desease. Anything can be made gluten free with ease. I am planning on making these funnel cakes but I might just use my waffle recipe. I would use a flour mix if cooking gluten free I suggest Pamala’s Gluten free flour mix. I use this product all the time and the waffles are amazing and that recipe will alter very nicely to the funnel cake recipe.
Can this recipe be made glut free by using rice flour?
I made this batter for deep fried Snickers and Oreos and it turned out great. As others have said you may need to add a little more liquid (milk or water) to get the consistency you need. We also made a few funnel cakes and will definitely be adding this to our regular party favorites.
This is a great recipe. It was just a little too thick so we added a half cup water. All the neighbor kids were loving them!
did not hold well with larger funnel cake shapes, but did awesome with small, bitesize funnel cakes. batter was hard to put into large shapes; used a spoon for drizzling into oil.
it was an awesome recipe!
Very Tasty!! I love them, so do my family.
It did not taste like any of the funnel cakes that I have ever eaten what so ever. I hate to say this only because I know how good of a chef Gale is. However, I found this recipe very ‘off’ if you will. The batter itself was fine, though it was the result that was not tasteful at all.
These were light and fluffy and just right in sweetness. I did add an additional ? c of milk to this and it was still on the thick side. Half of the recipe made about 18 five inch rounds.
We loved the Funnel Cakes. They were easy sprinkle with powdered sugar or have your own way. Light and fluffy.
