Step-by-Step Instructions

1
In a medium saucepan, combine the milk, sugar, and cinnamon. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is hot but not boiling.
2
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and eggs. Temper the egg mixture by slowly pouring the warm milk mixture into the eggs, whisking constantly.
3
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan to 375°F (190°C). Using a spoon, drop small balls of the milk mixture into the hot oil, about 1 tablespoon each. Fry for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
4
Remove the fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar and serve warm.
