BUÑUELOS (Mexican fritter dessert)

 

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 1/2 tablespoons sugar

4 cups flour

2 eggs

1 cup milk (soy will work)

¼ cup butter, melted

oil for frying

sugar and cinnamon mixture or sugar and ground cloves

 

Sift all the dry ingredients together. Set aside. Beat

the eggs thoroughly;

then beat in the milk. Stir the dry mixture gradually

into the egg-milk

mixture; then add butter. Turn on to a lightly floured

board, and knead very

gently until the dough is smooth and of an elastic

texture.

Divide in about 40 small or 24 large balls. Roll these

out to approximately

4 inches or 6 inches. Fry in very hot deep fat or oil

(370 ºF.) I use my electric wok for them, until

delicately browned on both sides. Drain on paper

towels, and sprinkle with the cinnamon and sugar

mixture.

Serve as a sweet snack or a dessert. I like them with

ice cream.

These sound so good! Like little doughnuts.

Thanks Kenia.

We are naturally reverent beings, but much of our natural

reverence has been torn away from us because we have been

born into a world that hurries.  And for all our hurrying

we lose sight of our true nature a little more each day.
