Deep-fried Oreos feature a crispy golden batter enveloping a chocolatey and creamy center, creating the perfect contrast of textures. Serve them with a dusting of powdered sugar for a crowd-pleasing treat!
Equipment
- Stockpot
- Whisk
- Mixing bowl
- Slotted spoon
Ingredients
- 1 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ tablespoons cane sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup plain soy milk (unsweetened)
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon neutral vegetable oil
- 20 Oreo cookies (regular or double-stuffed)
- 2 cups vegetable oil or canola oil (for frying)
For serving
- Powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, combine the soy milk, vanilla extract, and 1 tablespoon of oil.
- Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, mixing until a smooth, pancake-like batter forms. Let the batter rest for about 5 minutes.
- In the meantime, heat 2 cups of vegetable oil or canola oil in a deep frying pan or heavy-bottomed pot over medium. Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature, aiming for approximately 350-375°F.
- Dip each Oreo into the batter, ensuring that it’s fully coated. Carefully add the coated cookies to the hot oil using a slotted spoon or tongs.
- Fry the Oreos in small batches for 1-2 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the fried Oreos from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
- Allow the fried Oreos to cool slightly before serving. Serve them with an optional dusting of powdered sugar for an extra sweet finish. Happy eating!
Notes
- Monitor oil temperature: Use an oil thermometer to ensure the temperature stays between 350-375 degrees F throughout the cooking process.
- Fry in batches: Overcrowding can quickly reduce the temperature of the oil. It’s best to fry the cookies in smaller batches rather than all at once.
- Drain the oil: Use paper towels to absorb any excess oil, which will prevent the cookies from becoming soggy.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy your deep-fried Oreos warm for the best taste and texture.
