Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 large egg

3/4 cup milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)

Oil for deep frying

Powdered sugar, for dusting

Chocolate or strawberry sauce, for drizzling (optional)

Fresh berries, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon until well combined. In a separate bowl, beat the egg and then mix in the milk and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. The batter should be smooth and slightly thick.

    Heat the Oil: In a deep frying pan or a heavy-bottomed pot, pour in enough oil to submerge the funnel cake bites (about 2-3 inches deep). Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the heat by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; if it bubbles and sizzles, the oil is ready.

      Fry the Bites: Using a piping bag or a squeeze bottle, carefully pipe the batter into the hot oil in small spiral shapes or little rounds, about 2 inches in diameter. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.

        Drain and Dust: Once fried, use a slotted spoon to remove the funnel cake bites from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. While still warm, dust generously with powdered sugar.

          Serve: Arrange the funnel cake bites on a serving platter. Drizzle with chocolate or strawberry sauce if desired, and garnish with fresh berries. Serve warm for the best experience!
