Ingredients
- Jumbo Marshmallows: 20 pieces
- Pancake Mix: 1 cup
- Large Egg: 1 egg
- Milk: ¾ cup
- Vegetable Oil: Enough for deep frying, approximately 2 to 3 cups (depending on the size of your pot)
- Whipped Cream (for serving): Optional, to taste
- Chocolate Syrup (for serving): Optional, to taste
- Sprinkles (for serving): Optional, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the Oil: Heat about 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C).
- Prepare the Batter: In a bowl, mix the pancake mix, egg, and milk until smooth. The batter should be slightly thick but not too runny.
- Coat Marshmallows: Dip each marshmallow into the batter, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Gently shake off any excess batter.
- Fry Marshmallows: Carefully place the coated marshmallows into the hot oil. Fry for about 30 seconds to 1 minute, turning occasionally, until golden brown.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the marshmallows with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. While still warm, top with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and sprinkles if desired.
Notes
- Best served fresh and warm. If making ahead, reheat in the oven to restore crispiness.
- For a twist, try different batters or add fillings like chocolate or caramel to the marshmallows before frying.
