FAQs
Can I use regular marshmallows instead of jumbo?
Yes, you can use regular marshmallows, but they will cook faster, so watch them closely.
What type of oil is best for frying?
Vegetable oil or canola oil work well for frying because they have a high smoke point.
Can I freeze Deep Fried Marshmallows?
While it’s not recommended to freeze them once fried, you can freeze uncoated marshmallows and pancake mix separately, then fry them fresh when you crave them!
