Ingredients
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- vegetable oil for frying
- 4 ounces spiral-shaped duros
Instructions
- Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and stir.
- Heat the oil to 350°F in a deep fryer.
- Place the duros into the fryer, about 15 at a time. Nothing will happen for the first few seconds. Then they will suddenly puff up. Continue cooking for 5 seconds after they have puffed up.
- Remove the duros from the oil and transfer them to a wire rack to drain.
- Sprinkle the duros liberally with cinnamon and sugar.

Notes
- If you don't have a deep fryer you can fry the duros in a heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven. Use a candy or deep fry thermometer to monitor the oil temperature.
