At home, these donuts are a traditional fare during the Holiday Season.
Ingredients:
- 8 eggs
- 600 ml sugar
- 400 ml melted butter
- 2 ml salt
- 600 ml milk
- 2 l flour
- 80 ml baking powder
Method:
- Mix all the ingredients and place the dough in the refrigerator for at least one hour so it will be less sticky
- Put a good quantity of flour on your rolling surface to prevent the dough from sticking
- Roll the dough to about 0.5 cm thick
- Using either a donut-cutter or a large glass and a bottle cap (from a large pop bottle), cut the dough.
- Fry the donuts in a deep-fryer for about 4-5 minutes per side
- After they are fried, you can either roll the donuts in plain white sugar to coat them or let cool. If you prefer the latter, after warming the donuts just before serving coat them with icing sugar (traditional way).
