Mix 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

In another bowl, mix 1.5 cups of milk, 2 eggs, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients until the batter is just right—not too thin or too thick.

Set the batter aside.

Prepare the sugar mixture by mixing 1 cup of sugar and 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.

Heat the mold for at least 1 minute using a Cooks brand pan.

Drain the mold as much as possible after heating.

Pour the batter into the mold without going over the edges.

Keep the mold in the hot oil for 2 minutes on each side.

Remove and drain the buñuelos, then coat with the sugar mixture and flip to coat evenly.

Serve on a platter and enjoy.
