INGREDIENTS

  • 2 cups flour
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 2½ teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
  • Oil, for frying
  • For the Glaze:
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 5 tablespoons milk


INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Combine all of the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
  2. Whisk the eggs until pale in color, about 1 minute. Then add in all of the liquid ingredients, vanilla, milk, and melted butter.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and gently mix together. You do not want to over mix the batter, if there are small lumps in the batter that is good. Add in the strawberries and gently fold them into the batter.
