MANTECADAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F. Place muffin paper liners in muffin pan.
• Sift together flour, baking powder and yeast in one medium size bowl, and set aside. Place egg and sugar in a large bowl and whisk until sugar has dissolved.
• Add milk and the flavoring of your choice (vanilla, orange essence plus orange zest) and mix.
• Incorporate the oil in a gentle stream and whisk again to form a homogenous mixture.
• Slowly stir in the dry ingredients plus the pinch of salt, mixing gently until you have a very uniform batter. Do not over mix. Let the batter rest for 15 minutes.
• With the help of a pitcher or a ladle, pour the batter into the already prepared muffin pan. Fill it up just a little bit bellow the edge. See picture above.
• Carefully place in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool for about 5 minutes on a cooling rack. They keep well for 2 to 3 days when stored in an airtight container.
