Boil water, milk, butter, sugar, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat until melted.

Remove from heat and add flour, stirring until a dough forms.

Let the dough cool slightly, then add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.

Stir in baking powder and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F.

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and carefully drop them into the hot oil.

Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking.

Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle with cinnamon and powdered sugar while still warm.

Serve warm as a delightful snack or dessert.
