funnel

cake

will be ready before you know it, so let's get started first: We'll pour about two inches of oil into a large Dutch oven or pot and then place it over medium-high heat. this be 370 before we start adding our dough with just a drop of oil now in a large bowl I'm adding three quarters of a cup of milk two large eggs teaspoon of a good vanilla measure exactly tablespoons of granulated sugar and we're going to beat that, beat well until it's nice and smooth and now in a smaller bowl we're going to combine the dry ingredients and mix this, this is basically like a liquid pancake batter, but you're making the most amazing funnel cake in the world.

I'm so obsessed with it because when we were kids we went to Disneyland and Nuts Berry Farm and now they have a really good funnel cake. I'm adding a cup and three quarters of everything. -purpose flour which is 210 grams half a teaspoon of salt and three quarters of a teaspoon of baking powder so that it swells our scale is ready, we will give it a whisk and we will carefully monitor the oil you want. be 370. so if it's too cold it will be soggy if it's too hot they will burn the candy thermometer is very useful right now a quick word about the whole funnel thing so I just happened to find in the basement this funnel that I used to filling cakes, it's a little elegant and I love it.

I never use it except today, if you don't have a big funnel, what you can do is use a piping bag and just cut off the tip, it's really very easy. and foolproof, so you can use a funnel, a bag and I'll show you both ways. I think my oil is getting close. We're going to wet combine it in the dryer right now. I'm just going to stir it because that whisk is going to be a mess oh my gosh, I love seeing the potential of the deliciousness that the funnel cake will be. I'll fold it to get rid of those lumps.

I'm going to try using this. I'm a little skeptical if it's thin. enough for this to happen so let's add a little bit there is a plug built in so this is the trigger as I was afraid it wouldn't come out so let's use the piping bag I will never be able to use this it needs a larger hole diameter, I know if I put a lot of dough in here, it would push out a little bit, but it still won't be good enough, so let's set it aside, fill a piping bag and squeeze it out, I want about a half inch opening so you can cut through tip or use the appropriate round tip and now we're just going to squeeze this out in a circular motion to create a delicious disc to share with your family and friends.

Alright, squeeze it out. It should be about six inches and you can spray it to create a nest of sorts. I'm going to do the first one alone, but after you get more confident you can do two or even three at a time depending on the size of your Dutchman. In the oven, we're going to fry this until it's a deep golden brown and then we're going to use a spider or a slotted spoon to turn it over and then we'll continue. Oh, I can see the powdered sugar piled on top. You want to get a cooling rack. and some paper towels just to remove excess oil and then this can turn upside down if you're careful.

I'm really excited because you know a lot of the fairs have been closed and not open to the public, so I can't tell you how many. Sometimes I've been craving a funnel cake but it's not happening right so you move on, this is very easy to pipe and at first the batter is going to sink and you're like, oh where did it go, but it will go. come and reappear you know I'm going to make three at a time because I feel totally confident about this so we like to have them with just powdered sugar, but if you have funnel cake with anything else, let me know in the comments.

Are you stuck? Do you have some caramel? A little chocolate Does all this sound good to you? You might just think I'm going to add it to my recipe. Let me know I'm totally willing to try something else. All my dough is ready. and this made about nine funnel cakes. I made exactly nine funnel cakes, but it could be a little more or a little less. You might like yours, giant mega funnel, once they are out of the oven sprinkle them generously with powdered sugar and just like that They are ready to serve, let me know what you call them if there is a different name where you live, yes If you like this video, check out my quick and easy dessert playlist, crunchy, perfectly sweet, perfect, I'll see you in the next video.
