There’s something magical that happens when a flour tortilla is fried in butter. It creates a crisp, crunchy buttery confection that’s utterly irresistible. Add a dusting of cinnamon and sugar and you have one of the tastiest sweet treats ever!!!
This simple delicacy is a family favorite. If you love the flavor of cinnamon you will really enjoy these Bunuelos. They cook up lickety quick so you can enjoy them anytime you get a craving for something sweet.
In a small bowl, stir together cinnamon and sugar to combine. Set aside.
A comal is a smooth, flat griddle typically used in Mexico, to cook tortillas. Comals are generally made from heavy cast iron, and sized to fit over a burner on the stovetop.
Place a tablespoon of butter on a comal or large skillet.
Heat until butter is melted and begins to foam.
Place a tortilla in the comal and fry the tortilla until browned and toasty.
Flip tortilla and fry on the other side until golden brown and crispy.
Remove fried tortilla from the pan and dust it with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Be sure to dust both sides.
Repeat with remaining tortilla. Fry it in butter until browned and crispy, then dust both sides with cinnamon and sugar.
Cut tortillas into wedges.
Serve warm.
This is one of the easiest dessert treats you can cook up in just a few short minutes using common ingredients you have on hand. Buttery, crisp and delightfully cinnamony sweet. They are utterly irresistible! Move over cinnamon toast! This sweet treat is absolutely delicious!
