Bunuelos

Bunuelos are a traditional Mexican dessert made of fried dough balls coated in cinnamon sugar.

Ingredients - Serves 6

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg and milk together.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until a dough forms.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot or fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Take small portions of the dough and shape them into balls.
Carefully drop the dough balls into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Remove the bunuelos from the oil and drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
In a shallow dish, mix together the cinnamon and sugar.
While the bunuelos are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until coated.
Serve the bunuelos warm and enjoy!
