Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup milk
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla.
3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a soft dough forms.
4. Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently 4-5 times until smooth.
5. Roll the dough to 1/4-inch thickness and cut into desired shapes using a knife or cookie cutter.
6. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C).

• For savory pastries, omit sugar and add herbs or spices to the dough.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days; reheat in oven to crisp.
