Ingredients
- 6 cups (2 pounds) vegetable oil or shortening (2 1/2 pounds), for frying
- 1 1/2 cups (12 ounces) milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 cups (8 1/2 ounces) King Arthur Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3/4 cup (3 ounces) confectioners' sugar
Preparation
Step 1
Heat the oil to 375°F in a deep fryer, or a deep, heavy pan with sides at least 3 inches deep.
In a large bowl, beat together the milk and eggs. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, 2 tablespoons sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Stir into the egg mixture until smooth. Pour 1 cup of batter into the dispenser. Start from the center of the hot oil and, in a swirling motion, pour batter in concentric and overlapping circles to make a 6- or 7-inch round. Fry cake on both sides, until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining batter. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve warm. Yield: about 8 cakes.
