👨🍳 Instrucciones
- 1
Mash the ripe plantains in a large bowl until smooth. Ensure there are no large lumps.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: The riper the plantains, the sweeter and easier they are to mash. - 2
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Sifting the dry ingredients can help create a lighter texture. - 3
Add the dry ingredients to the mashed plantains. Gradually add milk, mixing until a thick batter forms. It should be scoopable but not too runny.

Heat about 2-3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 350°F (175°C).
⏱️ 10 minutes💡 Consejos de Profesional: Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature. Too low, and the buñuelos will be greasy; too high, and they will burn before cooking through. - 5
Carefully drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot; fry in batches.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Use two spoons to help shape the buñuelos as you drop them. - 6
Fry for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and puffed up. Turn them occasionally for even cooking.
⏱️ 5 minutes💡 Consejos de Profesional: Adjust heat as needed to maintain oil temperature. - 7
Remove the buñuelos with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: Allow them to drain well to remove excess oil. - 8
Optional: Dust with cinnamon and sugar, or serve with a simple syrup made by boiling sugar and water.
💡 Consejos de Profesional: These are best served warm.
