Sopapillas

Mexican sopapillas puff up dramatically in the fryer, turning into light, airy pastry pillows — dust with cinnamon sugar and drizzle with honey while they're still hot.

Ingredients

2 cupsflour
1/2 cuphoney to drizzle
1/2 cupcinnamon sugar for dusting

Instructions

1

Make a simple dough with flour, roll it out thin and cut into even squares.

2

Rolling it thin is what lets the squares puff up dramatically in the hot oil.

3

Deep-fry the squares until they puff up into golden pillows, about 1-2 minutes, turning once so both sides colour evenly.

4

Dust the hot sopapillas with cinnamon sugar and drizzle generously with honey while they are still warm, so both cling to the surface properly.
