Instructions
- Add milk and lard to a medium saucepan on medium heat.
- Stir well until lard is fully melted, then remove the pan from the heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
- Add in the vanilla extract and eggs and whisk well until it makes a custard and continue to let cool in your stand mixer with a dough hook attachment.
- In a large bowl add the flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and anise and whisk until well mixed.
- Turn on the stand mixer to a medium speed and add in the flour mixture, letting the dough come together with the dough hook for 8-10 minutes until it makes a ball that is no longer sticking to the sides of the stand mixer.
- Roll the dough into 20 balls on a greased baking sheet.
- Cover and let rise for 40 minutes.
- On a floured surface each ball into a 5 inch circle, then cover with a clean kitchen towel to avoid it drying out and stack them with a bit of flour dusted between them.
- Heat oil in a large skillet or pot about 1" deep to 350-365 degrees.
- While the oil is heating up add the sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg to a shallow bowl and mix with a fork.
- Fry each piece of buñuelos until golden brown, about 30 seconds on each side, then immediately coat in the sugar mixture on both sides.
- Repeat with remaining pieces of dough.
