Instructions
1
Heat a heavy bottom pot of oil that has at least 3 inches of oil in it or use a deep fryer if you have one. Turn the heat over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
2
Add the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt to a large bowl and stir to combine.
3
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.
4
Pinch off pieces of dough and roll them into long oval shapes. Make about 12 dumplings.
5
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.
6
Remove dough and drain off any excess grease. Serve and enjoy.
