Ingredients

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ cup fine yellow cornmeal

6 Tablespoons granulated sugar

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

½ teaspoon salt

¾ cup milk a little less or more may be needed

Oil for deep frying*

Directions

Heat a heavy bottom pot of oil that has at least 3 inches of oil in it or use your deep fryer. Turn the heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Add the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt to a large bowl and stir to combine.

Add the vanilla extract and milk and stir until the dough comes together. Then use your hands to lightly form the mixture into a ball.

Pinch off pieces of dough and roll them into long oval shapes. Make about 12-14 dumplings.

Once the oil has reached the temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit, fry the dough on all sides, until golden brown. This should take about 4-6 minutes.

Remove dough and drain off any excess grease. Serve and enjoy.
