Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
-
Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring constantly until a smooth batter forms. The consistency should be similar to pancake batter – not too thick or too runny.
-
Heat oil in a deep skillet or pot until it reaches 375°F (190°C). You'll need enough oil to allow the funnel cakes to float while frying.
-
Once the oil is hot, pour the batter into a funnel or a squeeze bottle with a small opening. Hold the funnel or bottle over the hot oil and carefully drizzle the batter in a circular motion, creating a lacy pattern. Be cautious as the oil will be hot.
-
Fry the funnel cake for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to carefully flip the cake halfway through the cooking process.
-
Once the funnel cake is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oil using a slotted spoon and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
-
Dust the warm funnel cake generously with powdered sugar for the perfect finishing touch.
-
Serve your gluten-free funnel cakes warm and enjoy every crispy, sweet bite!
