Sopapilla Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Mix well. Gradually add water and knead the dough until it is soft and elastic. Let it rest for 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Roll and Cut the Dough

    After resting, roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into squares or diamond shapes.

  3. 3

    Fry the Sopapillas

    In a deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the dough pieces until they puff up and turn golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Drizzle the fried sopapillas with honey and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve warm with a scoop of ice cream on top or on the side.
