I am equally obsessed with sopapillas! We have a hole-in-the-wall Mexican place near our old house and that is where my love for sopapillas began. SO amazing. I remember we’d order at least three orders of it every time we’d go, haha. These look SO delish! I am dying over their ease. And that fried ice cream. .. oh maaah gosh.

LOVE sopapillas. I used to work at a restaurant that had the best sopapillas and I miss them – pinning this recipe and making these this weekend! Thanks for sharing 🙂 Sarah @ Miss Candiquik recently posted..Mocha Marshmallow Pops
Wow, I never would have thought these were so easy to make! I am seriously going to make these for our Cinco de Mayo celebration! Great idea!! Kristin @ Dizzy Busy and Hungry! recently posted..Dizzy Busy Digest 20 April 2013 – Focus on 3 Things I Love!
I love the crescent roll version of the sopapilla, but the use of puff pastry? Drool worthy. XO Jenny @ The Brunette Baker recently posted..Boston Cream Whoopie Pies
These look super delicioso! I love Sopapillas, unfortunately the best Mexican restaurant around us just recently closed it’s doors. I will definitely be giving these a try!
Oh I am all about the Sopapillas!! I am so going to make these very very soon! I already have the puff pastry! Chandra@The Plaid and Paisley Kitchen recently posted..Roasted Vegetable Lasagna
Ashley….question. I’m helping give a cinco de mayo party this weekend. Can I make these in the morning and they still be good in the afternoon? (like 6 hours later) or do they have to be eaten quickly out of the oven?
Hi Melanie! Well, I ate quite a few of these as leftovers, and I still thought they tasted pretty darn good. 🙂 Of course, they are best right out the oven, but I know when party planning that is not always possible! I might try placing them back in your oven on WARM, right before serving, but you’d watch to watch them closely to make sure they don’t get too brown. Good luck, and let me know how they turn out!
Hi Ashley! I just wanted to stop by to say that this recipe looks AMAZING and I can’t wait to make it! I actually included it in my Cinco De Mayo Recipe Round-Up last week 🙂

Hi- Just wanted to let you know that I tried these today with my little chef (she’s three). I’m working on finding recipes that she can help me with. These turned out great and she enjoyed serving them to her older brother, too. Thanks for the recipe! MJ recently posted..When least expected…
So glad your little chef liked these! My kiddo is five, and we had a great time working on these together in the kitchen. I’m always looking for easy “recipes” for little hands! 🙂
I agree with you, Peggy. These are not ‘real’ sopapillas; as I mentioned in my post, this is a kid-friendly version. I often like my 5-year old to help in the kitchen, but I don’t want him around hot oil. :-). I appreciate your feedback, thanks!
Hi Pat – a Silpat is a silicone non-stick baking sheet. It’s great for working with sticky materials like gooey batter, caramel, doughs, etc. – nothing sticks to it!
Great recipe! I just made these and loved it. Just a tip, it taste more like a soapapllias if you get it out right at 11 or 12 min., if you wait the pastry will flake. Also I coated mine with melted butter then just a little bit of the sugar mixture and honey. My husband ate his with whip creamand cchocolate drizzle. Thank you for sharing this recipe honey! It was delicious and easy!!
This aren’t mexican sopapillas :/, this are just pastry baked with honey. Real sopapillas have sugar and cinnamon, are fried (i know, i like light versions, but this is not one 🙁 ) and look like a empanada, oh, and are darker (like light brown).
Believe me, I’ve eaten plenty of authentic Mexican sopapillas in my day. :-). These are just a fun make at home version that my little boy enjoys helping with–we don’t deep fry at home. But thanks for commenting!
Make balls(your desired size) of vanilla ice cream,

Oh my…working at a Mexican restaurant would be so dangerous for me! I’d never quit eating!
Yum, yum, yum. These look great!
They were!
MMMM Sopapillas! This recipe sounds fantastic.
Thanks, Nicole!

No offense but sopapillas shouldn’t be a flaky pastry. They are almost like a hollow donut…soft and steamy and amazing.
I’m sure this recipe will work in an emergency but they will never be the same as a real sopapilla…sorry

The recipe looks great but what is silpat?

Thanks! I bake a lot but I’ve never used silicone sheets. I plan to try this recipe tho!
