flour

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: water

Almond milk reduces calories and is dairy-free.

sugar

🥗Healthier: honey

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey is a natural sweetener with a unique flavor.

eggs

🥗Healthier: flaxseed meal

💰Cheaper: egg substitute

Flaxseed meal is a vegan alternative.

In a mixing bowl, add 4 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and 4 tablespoons of sugar, then whisk together.

Add 4 large eggs, 4 teaspoons of vanilla extract, and 4 tablespoons of melted butter to the dry ingredients and whisk until combined.

Slowly add 4 cups of whole milk to the mixture while whisking until the batter resembles pancake batter and no visible flour remains.

Cover the batter and let it rest for 30 minutes to allow the baking powder to activate.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to a temperature of 400°F, then lower the heat to medium once it reaches that temperature.

Heat the rosettes in the oil for about 5 minutes, then remove and pat dry with a paper towel before dipping them into the batter.

Dip the heated rosette into the batter, then place it back into the hot oil, ensuring it is submerged.

Fry the buñuelos until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes, then remove and shake off excess oil before placing them on a paper towel-lined plate.

Dip the buñuelos in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar, or leave them plain if preferred.
