Prepare the syrup by combining the sugar, water, lemon juice, and cinnamon stick in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat and let cool completely.

Kokin vinkki: Cooling the syrup completely before use prevents the loukoumades from becoming soggy.

In a large bowl, whisk together the warm water, yeast, and a small amount of granulated sugar for the dough. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
Noin 5 min
Kokin vinkki: Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast properly.

Kokin vinkki: A slightly warm oven (turned off) can be a good spot for rising dough.

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat to 175°C (350°F).
Noin 5 min
Kokin vinkki: Use a kitchen thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature for even cooking.

Dip a spoon or an ice cream scoop in oil, then scoop small portions of the dough and carefully drop them into the hot oil. Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Noin 15 min
Kokin vinkki: Keep a bowl of water nearby to dip your hands or spoon in if the dough becomes too sticky.
