Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil for frying
- Powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Create a well in the center and pour in milk, beaten egg, and vanilla extract. Mix until just combined.
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat (375°F). Test readiness by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle immediately.
- Using a squeeze bottle or piping bag, drizzle batter into hot oil in circular motions to form small shapes. Fry until golden brown on both sides (about 2-3 minutes).
- Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Dust generously with powdered sugar before serving.
