After going gluten free, going to the fairs just didn’t seem quite the same because we could no longer order funnel cakes. I decided it was time for us to enjoy these delicious treats once again. I was pleasantly surprised when it worked! Munchkin and her friends quickly gobbled up not one, but two of the funnel cakes.
Gluten Free Funnel Cake Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 Cups Gluten Free Bisquick
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 egg
- 1 Cup milk (can use almond milk if dairy/casein free)
- 1 tsp vanilla
Directions:
- Heat up oil for frying to 375 degrees F
- In a medium size bowl, combine flour, cinnamon, egg, milk, and vanilla until smooth.
- Place batter in a squeeze bottle; slowly squeeze batter into hot oil. (Try going in a spiral pattern and then criss-cross over the spiral. It may not work, but it’s what I try to do.)
- Cook for 1 minute (or until golden brown), flip, repeat on other side
- Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain.
- While still hot, dust with powdered sugar or cinnamon-sugar mixture
Want an even more decadent dessert? Top the funnel cakes with hot pie filling and a scoop of ice cream, or place a scoop of ice cream on the funnel cake and drizzle chocolate over it. Use your imagination and enjoy!

Saturday I passed a funnel cake stand and enjoyed the smell. It never crossed my mind to try making a gluten-free version. What a great idea.

This recipe was delicious!!! And so easy to make! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I thought our Funnel cake days were over…. then I saw your recipe yesterday and made them today. Delicious!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you! However, which one for bisquick? Pancake mix or flour mix? I have been GF for six year and just starting to be able to find recipes to replace some old time favorites.
This is the one that I use: http://amzn.to/1OZl0C8 (affiliate link).
Boyfriend and I made these on one of our weekly cooking adventures, super fun and WAY easier than I thought it would be!!!! Taste AMAZING!!!
I would like to know the texture, is it crispy or soft after frying?
The exterior texture is crispy while the inside is softer. It’s just like a funnel cake that you’d get at the fair.
