* Honey (3tbsp)
* Yeast (1tsp)
* Cinnamon ( optional)
* Water (25cl)
* Sugar (1tsp)- Optional
* Pinch of salt

* Lastly, pour in the remaining water and mix vigorously with a mixer or by hand.
We are making a batter which is not too soft but holdable without trickling off too quickly from the hand.
Cover and let it set and rise for 30-40 minutes.
It rises earlier if it’s in a hot environment so keep an eye on it
* Once fully risen, Pre-heat the oil to medium heat before deep frying on a cooker or use a deep fryer. Heat should be on a medium level.
* Make sure once you drop your puffs into the oil, you turn after some seconds.
* The standard frying colour is golden brown which is done inside and not soggy.
Some Wrong Instructions Concerning Puff Puffs
* Yeast must be mixed with hot water for it to work. This is false and you might even be killing the yeast as it is an edible healthy microbe.
* Milk must be added. Actually, milk and eggs makes puffs crunchy and flaky and these are not the attributes of a good puff puff. It has to be succulent, fluffy and not flaky.
