Instructions

  1. In a large Dutch oven or heavy bottomed pot add oil and heat to 325ºF - 350ºF.
  2. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together to blend. Add in eggs, buttermilk, whole milk and vanilla extract. Whisk everything together until batter is smooth.
  3. Pour 1/4 - 1/2 cup batter through funnel into hot oil, moving in circular or spiral motion to make each cake. Fry each cake until golden brown, (about 1 - 2 minutes per side). Remove when cooked with tongs and lay on rack to dry and allow excess oil to drain.
  4. Dust with powdered sugar and enjoy!
