Yield 8 5-inch cakes

Number Of Ingredients 10

Vegetable oil, for frying
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
Rounded 1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon whole milk
1 large egg
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Heat 1 inch vegetable oil in a deep-sided cast-iron pan to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, brown sugar, and salt. Create a well in center of bowl and pour milk, egg, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and vanilla extract into well. Whisk into dry ingredients until batter is smooth and transfer batter to a squeeze bottle with a 1/4-inch opening at top (or to a wet measuring cup).
  • Holding squeeze bottle 1 inch from oil, carefully squeeze batter into oil in a spiderweb pattern, starting from center, using about 1/4 cup batter per cake. Fry cake, flipping once, until golden brown on both sides, 3-4 minutes total. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Return oil to 350 degrees before frying next cake.
  • Sift confectioners' sugar over cakes just before serving.
