I make these at home all the time. They're so yummy!! Edit: I always clean out an old Heinz ketchup bottle and use it for my batter. Works well if you don't have a funnel or to store any leftover batter. Also, a bit of cinnamon in the batter is ah-mazing.
As soon as you said "I'm gonna add more powdered sugar" I thought of Tabitha Brown saying "Because that's my business." Speaking of which, it might be cool to recreate some of her vegan takes on different recipes
Funnel cakes are a staple at our reenactments. You can find us surrounding the food truck waiting for them. Sure, we get gripe that we're not eating salt pork and hardtack. But an old saying we reenactors have, "If they had them back then, they would've used them!" and then eat.
Ugh,funnel cakes are the best😫 This video was released at the perfect time too. My town has a fair every year to celebrate the founding of our town, and it was supposed to happen this weekend, but it was obviously canceled. My dad and I love funnel cakes, and we get them every year. They just remind me of so many amazing memories of my family.
thank you for this! Keeping it simple and easy to follow. I also like the fact that used several ways to pour the batter. You are good at making these videos
It’s really cool that different places of the world all have different interpretations of the same thing. Rice pudding, fried milk, and even funnel cake
I used to love going to Knotts Berry Farm Halloween Haunt. Every year, I'd get a funnel cake with boysenberry perserves instead of powdered sugar. It was heavenly.
I had a minor/medium medical emergency this past week. You have no idea how much i needed to learn how to make Funnel Cake!!!! So yummy and Fun. Thank You!!!
I used to make funnel cakes all the time as a kid using store bought pancake mix (the lovely kind you just add water to). Turns out just like it does at the fair!
I've been making them for the past 20yrs for my kids. I've tried many recipes bur find a thinner pancake batter works best with the right size funnel. ALWAYS an annual favorite no matter how old the kids get!
Just made this recipe, it's great! Just a heads up to anyone else who is considering making it - I feel like it makes a LOT, so I'd recommend halving the recipe unless you're feeding a lot of people.
it is exciting to note that this delicacy have been made as festive pastries in Finnish estate houses since at least the 18th century and have become a delicacy to be offered at the May Day celebrations in the late 19th century. In Finnish, the name of this delicacy is tippaleipä
I have never seen this type of cake in my country i really enjoyed how you made it, this looks fun creating shapes in the oil, I'm gonna have to try it and have some fun with my kids thx emmy ❤️
I’ve heard of funnel cake, but never knew what on earth it was!- and now I want to try one lol🤔🤗 sadly due to a deep frying incident that resulted in me getting second degree burns, I no longer deep fry ANYTHING!😩
I grew up with that cookbook! My grandma has it also, and now I have it 😀👍🏼 Now I replace alot of the recipes with the ingredients I use for healthier eating but we use some tried and tried recipes from it. I've never made the funnel cakes though.
If you use a squeeze/ketchup bottle and the ring from a canning jar lid you can make miniature funnel cakes. They come out to about the size or oreo cookies and they're super popular at parties.
Here in Decatur, AL area we have a nice little drive thru place called, Funnel Cake Queen, LLC. Kenya, the lovely owner, makes awesome funnel cakes with an assortment of toppings. So far my favorite is the one with strawberries, strawberry syrup, and whipped cream. Such the treat!
I've tried it both ways. But if you use pancake batter, get the kind that you just add water to. I use really warm water and not cold. I also don't use as much water because the batter should be thick. I also use a little bit of oil in with the batter. It turns out so good.
just subscribed. Its very helpful to see how you made 3 of these before you got it right. most would just show a perfect cake but your vid is way more informative. thanks!!
Using pancake mix works very well, i use bisquick. Just follow the directions on your box and i always add a little more milk or water so its not so thick
Growing up funnel cakes were always something we made after a fish fry. Fry up all the fish filets caught that day, then add extra sugar to the remaining batter and drizzle it into the already hot oil left from frying. We didn’t normally fry enough fish to impart any fishy flavor to the oil.
Emmy you need to try the Mennonite new years cookies or pummelchen. I bet the receipe is in the book you just referenced. You can use raisins or pieces of apple. Your boys will love them.
The state fair is one of my favorite things about fall where I live so it’s a little sad that none of that is happening this year. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
I have used pancake batter to make fried dough and it was delicious, but my favorite way is to kinda cheat by using the pillsbury buttermilk biscuit dough that comes in the tube, and always the buttermilk version, and when it comes out I have 2 different paper bags, one with powder sugar and one with cinnamon sugar, and close the bag and shake it around until they are covered and then let them rest for a second on a wire rack, it's really easy, and a lot less dirty dishes, plus my daughters love shaking the bags to help make the fried dough. If you ever get the chance I really really reccomend giving it a try 😊😊
I have never had one of these but I sooo badly wanna try! So Later today I am going to try this tutorial and I HOPE IT WORKS OUT! they look so delicious!
I'll have to try this since there's no fair for my family either this year. These are absolutely delicious with cinnamon sugar and applesauce as well ❤
i have had a Twinkie dipped in the batter fried.. topped with chocolate sauce and whipped cream and powdered sugar OMG... also a snickers bar the same way..had it at the Houston Rodeo. and Fair
You could totally make this into a mock ramen-looking dessert if you used a tiny funnel! And it would probably be amazing as a savory dish if uou put sour cream, cheese,etc. on it - kind of like that hungarian thing that’s one giant thing of fried dough ❤️
Oh man I haven't had a funnel cake since the thing occurred and my favorite funnel cake place had to close so this is so nostalgic for me right now best way to eat it is with powdered sugar chocolate sauce and two scoops of vanilla ice-cream
Au Teacher fry shaped funnel cakes. They were the best. And I think you had a few different dip options like thin icing and strawberry coolie and such. They were amazing
when i make deep fried oreos i like to use the funfetti pancake mix but for funnel cakes i find it is a little too heavy so it doesn’t really fry or stay together like it is supposed to
“I’m gonna add some more powdered sugar because...I want more” my new motto
Treat yourself when you can!!
Cant do that at the fair 😉
I make these at home all the time. They're so yummy!!
Edit: I always clean out an old Heinz ketchup bottle and use it for my batter. Works well if you don't have a funnel or to store any leftover batter. Also, a bit of cinnamon in the batter is ah-mazing.
Jackson Storm I’ve always wanted to try beignets ever since I watched The Princess and the Frog as a kid 😋
That is an awesome tip! Thank you!
I cried laughing when she said share with family and friends. Nope not this girl.
HAHAHAHAH, sharing is caring... sometimes...
My mom used to just let me have one bite, just one...lol
Yeah me too. That's not enough for my fam haha!🎃
Yep. All. For. ME. 🤣
so me 😂😂😂
As soon as you said "I'm gonna add more powdered sugar" I thought of Tabitha Brown saying "Because that's my business." Speaking of which, it might be cool to recreate some of her vegan takes on different recipes
Can you imagine if they did a video together? I’d die
Hmmm, I’ll have to think about it... Thanks!
@@mihawk508 My head would explode. The sun would shine from my computer screen!
Yesss vegan foods!
Reggie Jenkins that’s a little too much happiness and kindness . I’m not sure my dark heart could handle it.
I love how she give information about what she is about to make. Makes those so interesting
I have family friends that in retirement go around the US selling funnel cakes at fairs. They also use it as a pancake mix its so good.

Oh gosh. I used to live near Knotts and this comment made me so nostalgic!! I miss those damn boysenberry perserves on a yummy funnel cake!! ❤️❤️❤️
I had a minor/medium medical emergency this past week. You have no idea how much i needed to learn how to make Funnel Cake!!!!
So yummy and Fun. Thank You!!!
Love love love your enthusiasm, you always bring a smile to my face .

Of course, after I had it at the state fair, Emmy uploads how to make it! So excited!
I see a new series -- funnel cakes, fried dough, elephant ears, churros, candy apples...
the "food wishes" channel has State Fair Lemonade recipe and it's goooooooood!
Just made this recipe, it's great! Just a heads up to anyone else who is considering making it - I feel like it makes a LOT, so I'd recommend halving the recipe unless you're feeding a lot of people.
You should try it with a cream cheese icing drizzle like oh my goodness!!!!
great video! I like that you're clean and neat in the kitchen, very organized.
Watching Emmy's videos feels like being wrapped in a blanket fresh out of the dryer

If you don't eat a lot of sugar or fried foods I seriously recommend sharing one of these. They only taste good for a few bites in my opinion lol
Funnel cake is my absolute favorite food to enjoy at the fair. I missed the chance to get one this year, so thanks for bringing me a solution! 😋💛🍋
I grew up with that cookbook! My grandma has it also, and now I have it 😀👍🏼 Now I replace alot of the recipes with the ingredients I use for healthier eating but we use some tried and tried recipes from it. I've never made the funnel cakes though.
Once tried to make funnel cake and nearly set the kitchen on fire.
😂🤣 ...sorry, I shouldn't laugh....🤭
I’m sure I would do the same...
It's a dangerous task for sure 🔥
I did that with onion rings once. Lol
Oh I hope you got things under control. My friend actually burnt her whole house down by cooking with oil. They all survived.

Your confidence while working with hot oil is inspiring.
All it needs is strawberries and whip cream to cut all the sweetness, LOL

That looks and sounds amazing. Keep up with the fair food.
I have made funnel cakes with leftover pancake batter on the second day, and it works!
I love how she always give a little mini lesson at the start of every video, I'm always happy to learn something new :)
You are a wonderful cook and teacher! Thank you so much!
Emmy you need to try the Mennonite new years cookies or pummelchen. I bet the receipe is in the book you just referenced. You can use raisins or pieces of apple. Your boys will love them.
Your voice is pleasant and comforting. 🌷
The state fair is one of my favorite things about fall where I live so it’s a little sad that none of that is happening this year. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe!
Love it! My son loves funnel cake and didn’t get to fair this year. His birthday is in a week and it’s a funnel cake fit the celebration 👏👏
Watching emmy's video is the highlight of my day
Emmy’s video’s always fill me with serotonin after a long day, I love her content sm. 🥺💖

Wow, it's been soo long since I've been to Clifton Hill. Such a neat area of Niagara Falls, Canada, & such great memories.
she has a very soothing voice
I've used pancake batter and it totally works! You can make funnel cakes, or we actually dipped oreos in the batter and made deep fried oreos!
I have never had one of these but I sooo badly wanna try! So Later today I am going to try this tutorial and I HOPE IT WORKS OUT! they look so delicious!
I just love how excited Emmy always gets...makes me laugh 😁
That is an amazing funnel cake !! Thank you for bringing the fair into our home 🏡😊
Never tried funnel cake, but reading all the comments makes me want to. I was always more into the rides at the fair, rather than the food.
I could literally watch her make AANYYTHINGGGGGG its honestly amazing, how does she not have a show yet?
I have never shared a funnel cake, use of mouth rather than fingers feels most accurate.
I'll have to try this since there's no fair for my family either this year.
These are absolutely delicious with cinnamon sugar and applesauce as well ❤
I noticed in your links, you have a recipe for funny cake. I am from PA, and that is a favorite.
You can tell that she's very satisfied with what she made because she took three bites in around two takes.
Thank you for sharing this recipe I can’t wait to try it funnel cakes are my favorite😊
I havent had a funnel cake in years, but fortunately beignets are readily available to me, and they taste identical
It’s called ‘jalebi’ in south asia
i have had a Twinkie dipped in the batter fried.. topped with chocolate sauce and whipped cream and powdered sugar OMG... also a snickers bar the same way..had it at the Houston Rodeo. and Fair
You should have your own cooking show on the food network!! Have you ever tried that?
I've never had a funnel cake! This defeat looks like something I'll try next time i see one!
I love funnel cakes! Might actually try this
You could totally make this into a mock ramen-looking dessert if you used a tiny funnel! And it would probably be amazing as a savory dish if uou put sour cream, cheese,etc. on it - kind of like that hungarian thing that’s one giant thing of fried dough ❤️
Your video is crystal clear, I love it. It’s like your 3D.
Oh man I haven't had a funnel cake since the thing occurred and my favorite funnel cake place had to close so this is so nostalgic for me right now best way to eat it is with powdered sugar chocolate sauce and two scoops of vanilla ice-cream
Made with love and laughter
Get you a man that compliments you the way Emmy complimented that funnelcake
Emmy is superwoman 🦸♀️. I know I typed that already, but she's just such an awesome legend of a charismatic, entertainer.
That sounded and looked better than any funnel cake I ever had at my local fair.
Great recipe, cheers!
That is an enormous, delicious-looking funnel cake!
It's official!!! I'm doing this when I get home from work. I have to do it. God that look so good lol.
Try it with powdered sugar, a handful of peanut butter chips, a big scoop of vanilla ice cream and some whipped topping.
Finally! Something sweet!
I’m doing this for my birthday! (Today!)
Yum!
I heard that crunch from down here in Australia :P Looks so delicious!!!
Where's my funnel?!
I need someone to talk to me like Emmy talked to that third funnel cake. "You ate beautiful"
Funny how every country seems to have an own version of this
Pancake batter works really well
Omg do a fried candy bar episode!!!! Just different ones like snickers, butter finger, 3 musketeers!! 😁😁😁
You should make an elephant ear! I use to always get them at the fair or during 4th of July at the Fort in Vancouver, Washington.
Funnel cakes are so delicious 🤤
9:21 the way she says it is so funny
Powdered sugar is my favorite topping too, followed closely by cinnamon & sugar. :)
That second one you made is more like an elephant ear! I love those with cherry filling on top. 💕
(Where's my funnel?)
There was a place near me growing up that had funnel cake fries that you could sub your normal fries for and get them all year round, it was amazing
Funnel cake fries?!? Was it straight fry-shaped pieces of funnel cake or batter coated fries?
Au Teacher fry shaped funnel cakes. They were the best. And I think you had a few different dip options like thin icing and strawberry coolie and such. They were amazing
I love the regular sugar and cinnamon mixture on mine. yummm. this looks so yummy and no passing and sharing for me i'm eating it all lol.
My family has a Mennonite community cookbook too and my great grandmother was Mennonite
You should try mustard meringue. I've never had it but I would love to see you try it 😅
So delicious I am going to make this thank you for sharing have a blessed day can’t wait for your next video God bless bye
I made this last night!!!! And it was soooooooo good
when i make deep fried oreos i like to use the funfetti pancake mix but for funnel cakes i find it is a little too heavy so it doesn’t really fry or stay together like it is supposed to
Personally, I like the traditional batter vs pancake!!
Might have to surprise my family with this recipe 😋
bold of you to assume i share my funnel cakes with my family
This is true. What a silly notion.
Yoooooo this is what funnel cake looks like?? I always just imagined cakes in the shape of a cone for some reason lmao
Amazing funnel cake lesson..
