About this dish
An hojuela (lit. 'flake'), also called an hojaldra, is a traditional Spanish and Latin American sweet fritter originating in Spain. In Latin American countries, especially Colombia, and in Spain, it is commonly made during Holy Week and the Christmas season. Ingredients vary by region, but usually consist of a flour-based batter fried in oil and dusted with sugar or topped with honey.
