1 cup milk
1 cup water
1 tsp. vanilla extract
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tsp. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt
Oil for deep-fat frying
Powdered sugar, for serving
Heat oil to 375°F in a deep-fat fryer or larger heavy-bottomed skillet. In a large bowl, beat eggs. Add milk, water, and vanilla until well blended. Add the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt; whisk until smooth. Cover the bottom of a funnel spout with your finger and carefully ladle ½-cup batter into the funnel. Hold the funnel several inches above the oil and release your finger, moving the funnel in a spiral motion until all of the batter has flowed out of the funnel. Scrape with a rubber spatula if necessary. Fry 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown, using tongs to flip once. Drain on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar; serve warm. Repeat step 3 and 4 with remaining batter.
