In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and a pinch of salt for about 1-2 minutes.

In a separate bowl, beat 1 egg until frothy, then mix in 3/4 cup of milk until fully incorporated for about 1 minute.

Carefully pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, gently stirring with a spatula until just combined, about 1 minute.

In a deep frying pan or fryer, heat about 2 inches of vegetable or canola oil to 350°F (175°C).

Once the oil is hot, carefully drop spoonfuls of the prepared batter into the hot oil and fry for about 2-3 minutes until puffed and golden brown.

Remove the fried bites from the oil with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil, then dust with powdered sugar.
