Ingredients

• 4 large eggs
• 0.25 cups white sugar
• 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour , plus more for kneading
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup white sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 cup vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Beat eggs and 1/4 cup sugar in a large bowl until thick and lemon-colored; mix in 1 teaspoon vegetable oil.
3. 3 Combine 1 ½ cups of flour, baking powder, and salt; gradually add to egg mixture, mixing well until evenly combined.
4. 4 Turn dough out onto a floured board and knead thoroughly until dough is smooth.
5. 5 Shape dough into 16 even-sized balls. Flatten and roll each one into a very thin circle about 5 inches in diameter. Let stand uncovered on waxed paper for about 10 minutes.
6. 6 Meanwhile, combine 1 cup sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl until evenly mixed; set aside. Heat oil in a deep pan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
7. 7 Lower one circle of dough carefully into the hot oil; fry until golden, turning once, about 30 seconds on each side. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; sprinkle with cinnamon-sugar mixture.
8. 8 Repeat with remaining dough. Serve or cool and store in airtight containers.
