Sopapillas are a traditional pastry originating in Latin American and Spanish cuisines, often associated with regions like New Mexico. Made from a simple dough of flour, water, baking powder, salt, and sometimes a touch of shortening or butter, these airy treats are typically deep-fried to achieve a puffy, golden texture. They can be served sweet or savory—commonly drizzled with honey, sprinkled with cinnamon sugar, or stuffed with meats and cheeses. While delicious, sopapillas are calorie-dense due to their frying process and can be high in fats and refined carbohydrates. On the positive side, when prepared with whole-grain flour or air-fried, they can be slightly healthier alternatives. Customizable and flavorful, sopapillas are best enjoyed in moderation as an occasional treat.
