Easy Flour Tortilla Elephant Ears 10 (6 or 7-inch flour tortillas) peanut oil, for frying (You may use any vegetable oil.) 6 tablespoons white sugar 2 tablespoons cinnamon In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon. Set aside. (This recipe makes plenty of cinnamon sugar mixture, so you may want to start with only 3 tablespoons white sugar and 1 tablespoon cinnamon to see if that is enough.) Place 1 inch of peanut oil in a skillet and heat to 375 degrees (F). Using tongs, place 1 flour tortilla at a time in hot oil and fry until underside is golden, about 10 to 15 seconds. Turn, and fry other side until equally puffed and golden. Immediately remove from oil and drain on paper toweling. While hot, use a tea strainer to sift sugar/cinnamon mixture over both sides, to taste. Yield: 10 elephant ears. These are best served warm, right after coating, but they may also be served at room temperature. These would be a dramatic addition to your Super Bowl party! --Enjoy!

Health benefits of Betty's Easy Flour Tortilla Elephant Ears

Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly.
