Ingredients | Apple Pie Filling

1 cup shortening (such as Crisco®), or more as needed

2 cups milk

3 eggs

½ cup white sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

½ teaspoon salt

3 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

Put enough shortening in a deep skillet to fill about 1 1/2 inches and heat to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Mix milk, eggs, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl; slowly add flour, while continually mixing, until batter is smooth. Transfer batter to a squeeze bottle or funnel. Working quickly, squeeze or funnel batter into the hot oil, starting in the center of the skillet and moving bottle or funnel in a spiral shape.

Fry funnel cake in the hot oil until lightly browned, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer funnel cakes to a paper towel-lined plate using a slotted spoon.

I have found that Crisco(R) gives the best taste as far as oil is concerned. You are welcome to try any oil you like tell me how it turns out.

We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.

Apple Pie Filling / My original apple pie filling recipe used cornstarch, but the cornstarch does break down after time, and is no longer approved for canning due to safety issues.
