→ Main Ingredients

01 - 6 tablespoons melted butter
02 - 2 cups of all-purpose flour
03 - 1 egg
04 - 2 teaspoons of vanilla
05 - 2 cups milk
06 - 1 teaspoon baking soda

08 - A small pinch of salt

→ For Serving

09 - Optional fresh fruit
10 - Optional whipped cream
11 - Dust with powdered sugar

→ For Frying

12 - About 1/2 inch deep of vegetable oil

# Instructions:

01 - Mix melted butter, milk, egg, and vanilla in a medium bowl until smooth and blended well.
02 - Stir salt, sugar, and baking soda into the wet mix until it's combined.
03 - Slowly add the flour, folding it in bit by bit, until the batter is smooth without any lumps.
04 - Pour the mixed batter into a gallon plastic bag, seal it, and let it rest for a short while.
05 - Add vegetable oil to a frying pan so it’s about 1/2 inch deep. Turn the heat high for two minutes, then bring it down to medium.
06 - Drop a tiny bit of batter in the hot oil. If bubbles pop up right away at the edges, it’s ready to use. If not, turn up the heat slightly.
07 - Snip the tip of the bag to make a hole. Squeeze the batter into the oil, forming circular shapes one or two at a time. Cook until the bottom turns golden.
08 - Use a slotted spatula to flip the bites. Let the other side cook until golden as well.
09 - Move the cooked bites to some paper towels to soak up the oil. Sprinkle powdered sugar on top while they’re still warm.
10 - Enjoy right away with whipped cream or fresh fruit if you want.

# Notes:

01 - These bite-sized treats taste best when they’re freshly made and hot. Adjust the batter piping to make larger or smaller bites.
02 - Serve them on paper plates loaded with powdered sugar for that fair-style vibe.
