This recipe is delicious because they are not only sweet, but they will also have a lot of flavor with the red fruits that are in the filling.

Preparation

Medium

Mix all the filling ingredients in a bowl. Set aside. In a mixer, add the butter and beat until fluffy. When it is white, add the flour and beat a little more. Gradually add the cinnamon infusion, the remaining flour, and the water while continuing to beat. Combine the baking powder and sugar, beat until completely mixed. Carefully spread the dough over the leaves, using the back of a spoon to extend the dough, and put a bit of filling in the center. Fold each end of the leaf inward and finally fold the tip. In a steamer, arrange tamale leaves at the bottom and place the tamales you made inside. Leave them in for about an hour and a half or check the tamales until the leaf easily peels away.
