Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Prepare the Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Flour, Milk, Egg, Baking Powder, and Salt until smooth.
Heat the Oil: In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the Vegetable Oil to 350°F (175°C).
Coat the Gushers: Dip each Gusher into the Batter, ensuring it is fully coated.
Fry the Gushers: Carefully drop the battered Gushers into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown.
Drain and Garnish: Remove the fried Gushers with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Dust with Powdered Sugar and serve immediately.
