    List of Ingredients




    4 c. flour
    3 T. Sugar
    2 heaping tsp. baking powder
    2 (or less) tsp. salt
    4 tsp. vegetable oil
    1 1/2-2 c. hot tap water

    Recipe



    In large bowl add dry ingredients and stir. Mix in vegetable oil.
    Stir well. Gradually add hot tap water and stir with a large spoon.
    Add enough water to make a soft warm dough that is not sticky. Dust
    with flour and knead until dough is smooth, or for about a minute.
    Divide dough into 10-15 small balls. Let rest for 5 minutes. Heat a skillet, add oil so that the skillet is 3/4 full. Roll
    each ball into a very flat round shape. Cut into thirds. Fry each
    side in hot oil. If dough is right thickness and oil is hot the
    sopapillas will puff up. Fry until golden brown on both sides. Serve
    warm with sugar or honey. Let oil cool and save to use for next
    time. Strain if desired to remove dough particles.
