SOPAPILLAS
If oil is the right temperature, sopapillas will puff up. We like to make with chili or stew. You can also shake them in a bag with cinnamon/sugar and make something that tastes like a churro.

PEPPERIDGE FARM BAKED SOPAPILLAS
This is a tasty treat that my boyfriend loves. I think its great in the winter when its hot out of the oven, but also a reminder of boardwalk food in the summer. It can not only be eaten as a snack or dessert but even a breakfast. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400°F
- Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface.
- Cut the pastry sheet into 25 (2-inch) squares.
- Place the sugar and cinnamon into a paper bag and shake to combine.
- Bake for 15 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown.
- Add the hot pastries in batches to the bag and shake until coated with the sugar mixture.
- Drizzle the pastries with the honey if desired before serving.
Tips:
- For a crispy sopapilla, make sure the oil is hot enough before frying. The ideal temperature is 375°F (190°C).
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the sopapillas will not cook evenly.
- Fry the sopapillas in small batches for best results.
- Be careful not to overcook the sopapillas. They should be golden brown and cooked through, but not too hard.
- Drain the sopapillas on paper towels to remove excess oil.
- Serve the sopapillas warm, topped with your favorite toppings.
Conclusion:
Sopapillas are a delicious and versatile treat that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect sopapillas every time.
