Recipe Summary Pumpkin Funnel Cakes
After having this special treat at a Pennsylvania country fair I just had to try and recreate this for my family. I believe I came pretty close, and I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!Ingredients | Japanese Funnel Web Spider1 quart oil for frying1 ½ cups all-purpose flour¼ teaspoon baking powder1 teaspoon baking soda1 teaspoon cinnamon¼ teaspoon salt1 egg¼ cup packed brown sugar¾ cup canned pumpkin puree1 cup milk¾ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice½ cup confectioners' sugar for dustingDirectionsPour the oil into a deep pot or deep skillet, and heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and pumpkin pie spice in a mixing bowl.Beat the egg, brown sugar, pumpkin puree, and milk together in a large bowl until well blended. Gradually add the flour mixture, stirring until the mixture is smooth.Using your finger to close the opening, pour 1/2 cup batter into a funnel with a 1/2 inch wide spout. Release your finger, and drizzle the batter into the hot oil using a circular motion to make 4 to 6 inch circle, and then cross over the circle to make a spiral pattern. Cook until golden brown. Turn the cake over to cook the bottom side. Use a slotted spoon to remove from the oil, and drain on paper towels. Cool 5 minutes, and dust generously with confectioners' sugar.Snip a corner from a heavy, resealable plastic bag to use in place of a funnel; fill with a small amount of batter and squeeze gently. Use a candy thermometer to check the oil temperature.Info | Japanese Funnel Web Spiderprep: 15 mins cook: 15 mins total: 30 mins Servings: 4 Yield: 4 servings
