Description
Crispy deep-fried marshmallows are a fun and indulgent treat with a crispy exterior and a gooey, sweet marshmallow center.
Ingredients
10 large marshmallows
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Vegetable oil (for frying)
Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C), ensuring enough oil to fully submerge the marshmallows.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring to form a thick batter.
- Dip each marshmallow into the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Carefully lower the coated marshmallow into the hot oil and fry for 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove and drain on paper towels.
- Repeat with the remaining marshmallows.
- Once all marshmallows are fried, dust them with powdered sugar before serving.
Notes
- For a variation, dip the fried marshmallows in melted chocolate for an extra layer of flavor.
- Add cinnamon, nutmeg, or cocoa powder to the batter for additional flavor.
- Stuff marshmallows with chocolate or peanut butter for an indulgent twist.
- Use mini marshmallows for bite-sized treats.
