Photography Challenge/Happy 4th!

We've been up at our grandparents for the weekend, and it's tradition to make funnel cakes for the 4th of July. So I tried my hand at making them this year. And this week's photo challenge from Miss Eyebright is desserts. So here is my picture of 4th of July funnel cakes!



Funnel Cakes


2 cups flour (I used white rice flour and 1 1/2 tsps guar gum)

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp salt

1 1/2 + milk

2 eggs

oil for frying

powdered sugar for the top


1. Mix together all of the dry ingredients. Then add the wet ingredients. The batter should be thick enough to hold it's shape, but thin enough to pour through a funnel.

2. Pour the batter in a funnel and into hot oil.

3. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Let cool slightly, then sprinkle with powdered sugar.


Happy 4th of July!
