In a separate bowl, beat 5 eggs with a pinch of salt and optionally add 1 cup of milk and ¼ teaspoon of ground cinnamon.

Slice the bolillos and dip them in the egg mixture, ensuring they are well coated.

Heat the manteca in a frying pan and fry the coated bolillos until golden brown on both sides.

Once fried, soak the torrejas in the hot piloncillo syrup before serving.
