Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 1 1/2 cup(s) self-rising flour
- 1 large egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup(s) sugar
- 1 1/2 cup(s) mashed eggplant (peeled and diced, then boiled until soft, drained and mashed)
- 1 teaspoon(s) pure vanilla extract
- - enough milk to make a thick batter
- - oil for frying
- - powdered sugar
Instruction
- Mix well all ingredients together, except milk. Add enough milk to make a thick batter. (Should be softer than a drop biscuit dough, but thicker and heavier than a pancake batter.)
- Place about 1/2" of vegetable oil in heavy skillet, heat. When the oil becomes hot enough, drop batter by tablespoons full into the hot oil.
- Fry until browned. Turn and fry the other side.
- Drain on paper towels.
- Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
- Note: I have made these on a griddle sprayed with butter-flavored cooking spray. I did have to thin the batter a little more than usual, but it worked well enough. It is a great way to take out some of the calories and cholesterol if you are concerned about that.
