250

2
eggs
or vegan alterative
1
pinch
salt
1
vanilla pod
1
tsp
baking powder
For cooking and finishing
300
ml
sunflower oil
200
g

Instructions
Whisk together the flour, sugar, salt and baking powder.
Dig a well, add the milk and eggs and whisk until a smooth and homogeneous paste is obtained (the paste should not be too liquid).
Pour the sunflower oil into a high rimmed saucepan and leave to heat.
Place the dough in a piping bag and cut an opening of about ½ cm in diameter with a chisel.
Once the oil is very hot, let the dough flow, forming the shapes of your choice (spirals, abstract shapes, …).
Remove the “Funnel Cake” from the oil when it has a golden, dark colour on both sides.
Place them on kitchen paper to absorb excess oil.
Dip in fine sugar and leave to cool.
