Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 cup milk (can substitute with non-dairy)
- 1 large egg (room temperature)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 3 cups vegetable oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan to 375°F (190°C) for frying.
- In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, milk, egg, and vanilla until smooth.
- Use a squeeze bottle or piping bag to drizzle batter into the hot oil in circular motions. Fry until golden brown on both sides (about 1-2 minutes).
- Remove fried bites using a slotted spoon and drain excess oil on paper towels. Dust generously with powdered sugar while warm.
- Serve warm with toppings like chocolate syrup or whipped cream, as desired.
Notes
- For added flavor, mix in cinnamon or nutmeg into the batter.
- Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying; test with a small dollop of batter.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days.
