flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

milk

🥗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.

Mix flour, tablespoon of sugar, salt, and baking powder in a bowl with a fork.

Add vanilla extract, eggs, and milk into the bowl and mix with a hand mixer.

Add melted butter into the mixture and mix until smooth and creamy with no lumps.

Heat peanut oil in a pot until very hot, placing the mold in the oil to heat up as well.

Test oil temperature by dropping some batter into the oil.

Remove the mold from the oil, shake off excess oil, dip it partially into the batter, then place it back into the hot oil.

Fry for about 20 seconds on each side until golden brown, then remove with a fork and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Mix sugar and cinnamon on a flat plate, then coat the buñuelos in the mixture.
