Air Fryer Funnel Cake Bites Recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups of milk
• 1 egg
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• Pinch of salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 6 tablespoons butter, melted
• Cooking spray or a light brush of vegetable oil
• Powdered sugar (for dusting)
• Whipped cream or fruit (optional, for serving)

• Instructions

  • Prepare the Batter (Time: 5 minutes):
    • In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined.
    • Add in the salt, baking soda, and sugar, and mix well.
    • Gradually fold in the flour until the batter becomes smooth and well mixed.
  • Preheat the Air Fryer (Time: 3 minutes): Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C) for about 3 minutes.
  • Prepare the Batter for Air Frying (Time: 2 minutes):
    • Pour the batter mixture into a gallon-size Ziplock bag and seal it.
    • Cut a small hole in one of the bottom corners of the bag to create a makeshift piping bag.
  • Cook the Funnel Cake Bites (Time: 10 minutes):
    • Lightly spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray or brush it lightly with vegetable oil.
    • Pipe small circles or bite-sized shapes of batter into the air fryer basket, leaving a bit of space between each one.
    • Air fry at 375°F (190°C) for about 5-6 minutes, or until the bottom side is golden brown.
    • Flip the bites over and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes until the other side is golden brown and the bites are cooked through.
  • Serve:
    • Remove the funnel cake bites from the air fryer and place them on paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
    • Dust generously with powdered sugar.
    • Serve warm with whipped cream or fruit, if desired.
