Yummy Gluten Free Funnel Cake

Hey everyone! I’m back with another amazing dessert! It’s been a while since I last posted, but hopefully you will forgive me once you try this awesome recipe. LOL! One of the best things about this is that it’s gluten free! Now I will warn you before hand that the dough will not go through the funnel and is a bit hard to get through a plastic bag with a piping tip on it so if you want to be able to do that, add some more milk to it. So without further ado lets get on with this amazing iconic recipe… the funnel cake!

INGREDIENTS

1 1/3 cups gluten free flour blend of your choice
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp sea salt
2 eggs
1 tsp maple syrup (you can also use vanilla)
1/2 cup milk plus some (add more until its a good consistency to pipe out)
4 cups of vegetable oil

INSTRUCTIONS

In a large mixing bowl, sift together all your dry ingredients. (flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt)
Next, add the wet ingredients to a bowl. (eggs, milk, maple syrup) and whisk well. Then add to dry ingredients and mix.
Now let the mixture sit for 20 minutes before frying.
In a large pot heat the oil. It will take about 5 minutes to come up to the right temp. You will know its ready when it bubbles if you put a small ball of the batter in.
To fry them, you can put the batter in the funnel and drizzle it in the hot oil and fry for about a minute to a minute and a half on each side. If its too thick you can make some fun shapes and them drop them into the oil.
For a more traditional looking funnel cake you will need it be be a texture a bit thicker than pancake batter. I cooked mine from a thicker batter so I was only able to do small pieces, but they were still delicious!
Enjoy them while they are warm and top with some powdered sugar, whipped cream and maybe some cherry pie filling.
