Funnel Cake with Pancake Mix

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, sugar, and vanilla extract.

Step 2

Gradually whisk in the milk, a little at a time, until the consistency is like cake batter.

Step 3

Fill a deep skillet with about 2 inches of vegetable oil. Heat the oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 4

Use a funnel or a squeeze bottle to pour the batter into the oil. If you're using a funnel, cover the opening with your finger while you fill it with batter. Then, release your finger to start pouring. Move the funnel in a circular motion to form a spiral.

Step 5

Fry the funnel cake for about 1-2 minutes on each side or until it's golden brown.

Step 6

Remove it from oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels.

Step 7

Dust it with powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy!
