Fried fairground dough
Elephant ear names several plants with large, broad leaves resembling the ears of an elephant, especially tropical species in the arum family grown as ornamentals: The elephant ears by the pond grew enormous this summer.
In American fairground food, an elephant ear is a large, flat piece of fried dough dusted with cinnamon sugar—named for its shape and size.
