Rosquillas are Spain’s answer to doughnuts. No yeast. No waiting around. Just a simple dough scented with anise and lemon, fried until golden, then glazed or sugared. They’re crunchy outside, fluffy inside, and gone in 60 seconds. Let’s fry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        Step 1: Make Dough<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        1. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        2. In another bowl, whisk eggs, oil, anise liqueur, lemon zest, and vanilla.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        3. Pour wet into dry. Mix until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

          Step 2: Shape Rings<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          1. Lightly flour your hands. Pinch off a golf-ball-sized piece of dough (about 1\u00bd tablespoons).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          2. Roll into a log. Join the ends to form a ring. Place on parchment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          3. Repeat with remaining dough.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

            Step 3: Fry<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            1. Heat 2 inches of oil to 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            2. Fry rosquillas in batches, 2\u20133 minutes per side, until deep golden brown.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            3. Drain on paper towels.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

              Step 4: Glaze or Sugar<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              1. For glaze:<\/strong> Whisk powdered sugar and milk. Dip warm rosquillas. Let set on a rack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              2. For sugar dusting:<\/strong> Toss warm rosquillas in cinnamon sugar.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                Step 5: Serve<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                  \n
                1. Serve warm or at room temperature. Watch them vanish.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

                  Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                  Prep Time:<\/strong> 15 min | Cook Time:<\/strong> 15 min | Total:<\/strong> 30 min<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Yield:<\/strong> 15 rosquillas | Difficulty:<\/strong> Easy<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  Storage Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                  Best fresh day-of.<\/strong> Store in airtight container for 2 days. Reheat in oven at 350\u00b0F for 3\u20134 minutes to restore crispness. Not freezer-friendly \u2014 texture suffers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
