Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup Pancake Mix I used Krusteaz
- 1 cup water
- 3-4 cups oil I used vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Mix equal parts pancake mix and water.
- Make sure there are no lumps, whisking it I find works well.
- Place mix into a plastic squeeze bottle.
- Cut the tip-off of the bottle so that a smooth and steady stream of the mix can easily come out.
- Heat cast-iron skillet filled with about 2 inches of oil until it reaches 350 degrees. I use a thermometer, that way I can keep an eye on the temperature of the oil as often as I'd like.
- Squirt the pancake mix into the hot oil.
- Cook until golden on each side.
- Drain on paper towel.
- Dust with powdered sugar.
