Follow these straightforward steps to make your own delightful Funnel Cake Bites:

1. Prepare the Dough: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until combined.
2. Mix Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and vanilla extract until well blended.
3. Combine Mixtures: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
4. Heat Oil: In a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Use enough oil to allow the bites to float.
5. Fry Bites: Carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, frying them until they are golden brown—about 2-3 minutes on each side.
6. Drain Excess Oil: Remove the bites from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
7. Dust with Sugar: Generously dust the hot funnel cake bites with powdered sugar as soon as they come out of the oil.
8. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Funnel Cake Bites while they’re warm for the best texture and flavor.
