Steps

1

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Mix well.
2

Add the warm water and stir until you have a thick, smooth batter.
3

Cover the bowl with a towel and let it rest for 40 minutes.
4

Heat olive oil in a deep pot until hot.
5

Using a tablespoon, scoop some batter and drop it into the hot oil. Dip the spoon in water before each scoop to prevent sticking.
6

Once the loukoumades turn golden brown, remove them with a slotted spoon and place them on a plate lined with paper towels.
7

While still warm, drizzle with honey and sprinkle with cinnamon.
