Preparation method
- In a large bowl, crack the 2 eggs
- Add the sugar (1/2 cup) and milk (1 cup)
- Stir well with a whisk or fork until you have a homogeneous mixture
- Gradually add the all-purpose flour (2 and 1/2 cups), stirring continuously to incorporate and prevent lumps
- The batter should be creamy and slightly thick, falling slowly from the spoon
- Incorporate the baking powder (1 tablespoon) into the batter, mixing gently just until completely incorporated
- Do not overmix
- In a deep pot, heat a generous amount of vegetable oil over medium heat
- The oil should be sufficient for the fritters to be submerged
- Heat the oil until it reaches approximately 180°C (350°F)
- To test, drop a small piece of batter into the hot oil
- If it bubbles and rises slowly, the oil is at the ideal temperature
- Use two spoons to shape small portions of the batter
- Carefully drop the batter portions into the hot oil, frying only a few fritters at a time to prevent the oil from cooling down and ensure even browning
- Fry the fritters until they are golden brown on all sides
- Flip them during the process if necessary for uniform color
- Remove the fried fritters with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil
- In a shallow dish, mix the sugar (1 cup) with the ground cinnamon (1 teaspoon)
- Roll the still-warm fritters in this cinnamon-sugar mixture
- Serve immediately and enjoy
