Instructions
Put vegetable oil in a small skillet (about ½-inch deep) and heat to 375ºF.
In a large mixing bowl, beat eggs.
Add milk, water, and vanilla. Beat again.
Add flour, sugar, and baking powder. Beat until smooth.
Transfer batter to a ziplock bag. Cut one small corner off. Swirl batter into hot oil in a circular pattern.
Cook funnel cake for 2-3 minutes on each side or until it turns golden brown.
Top funnel cakes with powdered sugar, whipped cream, and sprinkles.
Notes
You can use vegetable oil, peanut oil or canola oil to fry your funnel cakes due to their high smoke point.
Funnel cakes are best when they’re fresh out of the fryer.
Top your funnel cake with berries, whipped cream, chocolate or caramel sauce.
