How to make it

  • Make syrup first.
  • .
  • Syrup:-
  • Combine all ingredients in a saucepan
  • Heat, stirring, until the sugar has dissolved
  • Simmer until the mixture has reduced to a light syrup
  • Remove & discard the spices
  • Keep warm while you make the bunuelos or make ahead & warm when bunuelos are ready
  • ..
  • Bunuelos:-
  • Sift the flour, salt & baking powder into a bowl
  • Stir in the sugar
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs & the milk together until well blended
  • Gradually stir in the dry ingredients
  • Beat in the melted butter to make a soft dough
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured board & knead it until it is smooth & elastic
  • Divide the dough into 18 equal pieces
  • Shape into balls & with your hands, flatten into discs about 3/4 inches thick
  • Use the floured handle of a wooden spoon to poke a hole in the center of each bunuelo
  • Pour oil into a deep frying pan or use a deep fryer & heat to 375 degrees
  • Fry the bunuelos in batches, taking care not to overcrowd the pan, until they are puffy & golden brown on both sides
  • Lift out with a slotted spoon & drain on paper towels
  • Dust the warm bunuelos with sugar & serve with the syrup
