Breakfast Sopapillas Recipe

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and granulated sugar. Mix well.

Add Water

Gradually add the warm water to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Knead the Dough

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Rest the Dough

Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.

Heat Oil

In a large, deep skillet or pot, heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

Roll Out the Dough

Divide the rested dough into small balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball out into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.

Fry the Sopapillas

Carefully place the rolled dough into the hot oil. Fry until they puff up and turn golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Cook the Bacon

In a skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside on a paper towel to drain.

Scramble the Eggs

In the same skillet, crack the eggs and scramble them over medium heat until fully cooked. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve the Sopapillas

On a plate, stack the hot sopapillas. Top with scrambled eggs and crispy bacon. Drizzle with honey and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
