Party Tree Funnel Cakes


3/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup flour
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
Confectioner's sugar for dusting.

In a deep-fryer, or heavy skillet, heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). 

In a large bowl, beat milk and eggs together. Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Stir into the egg mixture until smooth.  

While covering the funnel hole with one hand, pour in 1 cup of batter. Start from the center in a swirling motion to make a 6 or 7 inch round. Fry on both sides until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve warm. 

*If batter too thin, add a little more flour. If too thick add a little more milk or water. 

*Toppings: powdered sugar, honey, maple syrup, jams, jellies, preserves, fresh fruits, whipped cream, ice cream, chocolate syrup, nuts -- get creative!!

  *The Medieval Recipe does NOT contain baking power nor baking soda. They used either zero leaving or a sourdough starter to leaven them: recipes  at this link.
