Ingredients
Scale
- 12 large marshmallows
- 1 cup pancake mix
- 2/3 cup water
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting, optional)
- Chocolate or caramel sauce (for drizzling, optional)
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot to 375°F (190°C).
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the pancake mix, water, vanilla extract, and sugar until smooth. The batter should be thick enough to coat the marshmallows.
- Using a skewer or fork, dip each marshmallow into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
- Carefully place the coated marshmallows into the hot oil. Fry in small batches for about 30–60 seconds, or until golden brown.
- Remove the marshmallows with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Dust with powdered sugar or drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce before serving.
Notes
- Be cautious with hot oil and fry in small batches to prevent overcrowding.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
