1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch salt
1 cup water
1/4 pound butter
3 eggs
Vegetable oil for deep-frying
Sweet Syrup
Stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Combine the water and butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a
boil. Remove from heat and, using a wooden spoon, beat in the flour mixture.
Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating only enough to incorporate them into the
batter.
Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. The oil is hot enough when
a bread cube put into the oil sizzles and turns brown.
Shape the batter into balls about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. Carefully slip
them into the oil, being careful not to crowd the pan (work in batches, if necessary).
Using a wooden spoon, keep moving the bunuelos around so they will puff up and
brown evenly. When golden brown, remove them to a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve as soon as possible with Sweet Syrup.
Yields about 24 bunuelos.
