Directions:

• In a medium-sized bowl, mix the milk, egg, vanilla, and melted butter together.
• Add in the salt, baking soda, and sugar, mixing until combined.
• Slowly fold in the flour until the batter becomes smooth.
• Pour the batter into a gallon-sized Ziplock bag and let sit for a few minutes.
• Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan until it's about a half inch deep.
• Heat the oil on high for about two minutes, then reduce to medium heat.
• Test the oil by dropping a small bit of batter into it.
• If bubbles form around the edges, the oil is ready. If not, turn the heat up a bit more.
• Cut a small hole in the bottom corner of the Ziplock bag and drizzle the batter into the hot oil in 1 to 2 circles.
• Cook until the bottom half of the batter is golden brown, then gently flip with a slotted spatula and cook until the other side is golden brown.
• Place the funnel cake bites on paper towels to absorb excess grease, then sprinkle with powdered sugar.
• Serve warm and enjoy!
