Gorditas de Azúcar - Traditional Recipe!

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

Add all-purpose flour to a large bowl.

Add shortening to the flour and mix well until there are no major lumps.

Add sugar and mix to incorporate.

Add a pinch of baking powder.

Gradually add water, starting with a little, mixing until the right texture is achieved, totaling 300 milliliters.

Knead the dough until it is firm and elastic, adding flour if too sticky or water if too crumbly.

Let the dough rest for about 10 minutes.

Roll out the dough to about a quarter of an inch thick.

Turn on a skillet to medium heat.

Use a cup to cut out circular shapes from the rolled dough.

Place the gordita on the skillet and wait until it can be moved easily with a finger before flipping it.

Cook until fully cooked inside and golden brown.
