Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) in a heavy skillet.
Step 2
Beat milk and eggs together in a large bowl. Combine flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a separate bowl; stir into egg mixture until smooth.
Step 3
Use your finger to cover the funnel hole; pour in 1 cup of batter. Starting in the center of the skillet, remove your finger and move the funnel in a swirling motion to make a 6- or 7-inch round. Fry in hot oil until bottom is golden brown; flip and continue cooking until golden brown all over, about 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels. Continue cooking remaining batter.
Step 4
Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar and serve warm.
