Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 cup sugar for coating
  • Optional dipping sauces: chocolate, vanilla, or caramel

Method
 

  1. Combine flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, salt, and cinnamon in a saucepan. Add water gradually, whisking into smooth dough.
  2. Simmer dough over medium heat 4-5 minutes, stirring until elastic and smooth.
  3. Cool dough to room temperature, covered in a bowl.
  4. Heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Pipe dough into 4-inch strips, gently twirling for ridges.
  5. Fry until golden brown, 1-2 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  6. Toss in 1/2 cup sugar + 2 tsp cinnamon. Repeat for remaining dough.

Notes

Use whole wheat flour if preferred; add 1 tbsp almond milk to maintain moisture.
Double sugar coating for sweeter results.
Serve with warm dipping sauces like melted chocolate or caramel.
