  • Author: Noah

Description

This recipe for Deep Fried Oreos offers a fun and indulgent dessert treat featuring classic Oreos coated in a thick pancake batter and fried to golden perfection. The result is a crispy, warm exterior with the beloved Oreo cookie melted inside, dusted with powdered sugar for a sweet finish. Perfect for fairs, parties, or a decadent snack.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Batter

  • 1 cup pancake mix
  • ⅔ cup water

Other Ingredients

  • 10 Oreos
  • Oil for frying (enough to cover ⅓ of the pan)
  • ⅓ cup powdered sugar (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oil: Pour oil into a deep pan or pot until it covers about one-third of the pan’s height. Heat the oil over medium-low heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).
  2. Make the Batter: In a bowl, pour the pancake mix and slowly add half of the water while stirring. The batter should be thick enough to coat the Oreos. If the batter is too thin, add a bit more pancake mix; if too thick, add a little more water carefully.
  3. Coat and Fry the Oreos: Dip each Oreo cookie fully into the thick pancake batter ensuring it is well coated. Carefully place the coated Oreo into the hot oil. Fry each cookie for approximately 30 to 45 seconds per side, or until the batter turns a light golden brown.
  4. Drain and Serve: Remove the fried Oreos from the oil and place them on paper towels or a rack to drain excess oil. Once drained, dust them generously with powdered sugar to finish. Serve warm for the best experience.

Notes

  • Maintain oil temperature at around 375°F to ensure even cooking without soaking in too much oil.
  • The batter consistency is key; too thin and it won’t coat properly, too thick and it will create a heavy coating.
  • Use a slotted spoon or frying basket to handle the Oreos safely in hot oil.
  • Serve immediately while warm for optimal taste and texture.
  • This recipe is best enjoyed as an occasional treat due to its fried nature and sugar content.
