Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 cup marshmallows
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 1 cup milk
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Frying Ingredient:
- Oil for frying
Instructions
- Create a silky smooth batter by whisking 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, 1 egg, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract together in a medium mixing bowl until completely blended.
- Pour vegetable oil into a deep fryer or heavy-bottomed pan, heating to 375°F for consistent frying temperature.
- Grab a marshmallow and completely submerge it into the prepared batter, ensuring every surface gets a thorough coating.
- Roll the batter-covered marshmallow in 1 cup breadcrumbs, pressing gently to help crumbs adhere completely to the exterior.
- Gently lower the breaded marshmallow into hot oil, maintaining a consistent 375°F temperature during cooking.
- Fry each marshmallow for 45-60 seconds, rotating carefully to achieve an even, golden-brown exterior.
- Transfer the fried marshmallow onto a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil and allow brief cooling.
- Dust with optional powdered sugar just before serving for an extra touch of sweetness.
Notes
- Ensure the batter is smooth and free of lumps for an even coating on the marshmallows.
- Use cold marshmallows straight from the refrigerator to help them maintain their shape during frying.
- Maintain oil temperature around 375°F for consistent golden-brown results without burning.
- For a gluten-free version, swap wheat flour with almond or coconut flour and use gluten-free breadcrumbs.
