How to Make Funnel Cake Mix Gifts In A Jar
- **Prepare the Dry Mix:** In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- **Combine Dry Ingredients:** Ensure the dry ingredients are thoroughly blended.
- **Jar the Mix:** Transfer the dry funnel cake mix into a wide-mouth 1-quart canning jar.
- **Add Gift Tag:** Attach a gift tag with the following frying instructions (included below).
- **Frying Instructions:**
- **Heat Oil:** Pour vegetable oil into a large skillet to a depth of 1 inch. Heat the oil to 360°F (182°C) over medium-high heat. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature.
- **Prepare Wet Ingredients:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg and 1/2 cup milk.
- **Combine Wet and Dry:** Add 1 cup of the funnel cake mix from the jar to the wet ingredients. Whisk with a fork until a smooth batter forms.
- **Fry the Funnel Cakes:** Hold your finger under the funnel opening to prevent clogging. Pour approximately 1/4 cup of batter into a funnel. Slowly drizzle the batter into the hot oil in a circular motion to create a spiral shape.
- **Cook the Funnel Cakes:** Fry for approximately 1 minute per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Flip the funnel cake carefully using tongs.
- **Drain:** Remove the cooked funnel cakes from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain excess oil.
- **Dust with Powdered Sugar:** Sprinkle generously with powdered sugar and serve immediately.
