Zubereitung von Mexican Bunuelos

In a large bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 cup granulated sugar.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 1 cup milk.
Gradually add the wet ingredients (eggs and milk) to the dry ingredients, beating constantly until a smooth dough forms.
Add 1/2 cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter to the dough and beat until well combined.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
Divide the dough into small balls (about 1 inch in diameter) or roll into ropes. Flatten each ball or rope slightly with your palm.
Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or pot to 350°F (175°C). Carefully fry the bunuelos in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan, until they are golden brown and cooked through (about 1-2 minutes per side).
Remove the bunuelos from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
While still warm, toss or roll the bunuelos in a mixture of 1/2 cup granulated sugar and 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon.
