A layered jar of dry funnel cake mix with a tag for the wet ingredients. Add an egg and milk, then fry the batter for a fair-style treat.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 Tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

  • Add the dry ingredients in layers to a jar or vacuum seal bag.
  • Tie on a tag with the directions for the wet ingredients.

Notes

To prepare: 1 large egg, 3/4 cup milk, 1 cup Mix, optional powdered sugar. Whisk egg and milk into the mix until just blended. Pour 1/4 to 1/3 cup batter through a funnel into hot oil (deep fryer). Fry about 1 minute per side, until golden brown; flip only once. Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
Storage: leftovers airtight in fridge up to 3 days; freeze on parchment until solid, then bag up to a month; thaw at room temperature. Reheat in oven or air fryer at 350°F (about 5 minutes oven, 3 to 4 minutes air fryer) or in a toaster.
