Bunuelos (Diabetic)

1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon Equal® for Recipes or 3 packets Equal sweetener or 2 tablespoons Equal® Spoonful™
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cold margarine, cut into pieces
2 large egg whites, beaten
1/4 cup skim milk
Vegetable oil
6 teaspoons Equal® for Recipes or 20 packets Equal sweetener or 3/4 cup plus 4 teaspoons Equal® Spoonful™
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. Combine flour, 1 teaspoon Equal®, baking powder and salt in medium bowl; cut in margarine with pastry blender until margarine is in very small pieces.
2. Mix egg whites and milk; stir into flour mixture to make soft dough. Knead dough on floured surface until smooth, 2 to 3 minutes.

4. Heat 2-inches oil to 375*F (190*C) in saucepan or deep skillet. Fry dough, a few pieces at a time, until puffed and golden, about 30 seconds on each side. Drain well on paper toweling.
5. Combine 6 teaspoons Equal® for Recipes and cinnamon in small bowl, sprinkle each warm bunuelo with scant 1/4 teaspoon mixture. Serve warm.
