# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
2 Uncrustables sandwiches, thawed
→ Batter
02 -
1 cup pancake mix (e.g., Bisquick)
03 -
2 large eggs, room temperature
04 -
1 cup milk (2% or preferred variety)
05 -
1 ½ tablespoons vegetable oil
→ Frying and Toppings
06 -
Vegetable oil for frying (enough for deep frying, approx. 2 cups)
07 -
Powdered sugar, for dusting (optional)
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together pancake mix, eggs, milk, and 1 ½ tablespoons oil until combined. Small lumps are acceptable.
02 -
Pour remaining vegetable oil into a deep skillet or Dutch oven and heat over medium heat to 375–400°F. Confirm readiness by dropping water droplets; if they sizzle immediately, oil is ready.
03 -
Insert a wooden skewer or fork into each Uncrustable. Fully submerge in the batter, coating both sides evenly.
04 -
Carefully lower coated sandwiches into hot oil. Fry approximately 2 minutes per side until golden brown and crisp.
05 -
Remove from oil and place on paper towels to drain excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar if desired. Serve warm with optional toppings.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Do not fry frozen Uncrustables directly; allow them to thaw to prevent oil splatter. Let fried sandwiches cool slightly before serving to avoid burns.
