Timbits

Ingredients

• 2 cups Flour
• 1/3 cup Sugar
• 3 tsp Baking Powder
• ½ tsp Salt
• 1 beaten Egg
• ¾ cup Milk
• 3 tbs Oil
• garnish Icing Sugar

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk or sift together until evenly mixed.
2. In a separate bowl, mix the beaten egg, milk and oil until smooth. Add the wet ingredients to the dry mixture and stir gently until a smooth batter forms.
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to about 185°C / 365°F, ensuring the oil is hot but not smoking.
4. Using a teaspoon, carefully drop small portions of batter into the hot oil, working in batches so the pan is not overcrowded. Fry, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides.
5. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. While still warm, roll in icing sugar or serve as is.
