Ingredients:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon yeast (instant or active dry)
- 1 cup warm water (not too hot!)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- Honey (for drizzling)
- Powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, mix together the warm water and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it’s frothy.
- Add the sugar, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Stir well.
- Gradually add the flour, mixing until a sticky dough forms. You may need more or less flour depending on your environment.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about an hour, or until it doubles in size.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and shape it into small balls. Place them on a floured surface and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- While the dough is rising, heat oil in a deep pot over medium heat. You can test if it’s ready by dropping a small piece of dough into the oil; it should sizzle and float to the top.
- Carefully add the Sfingi to the hot oil in batches, frying until they are golden brown on all sides. This should take about 3-4 minutes per batch.
- Remove them from the oil and let them drain on paper towels.
- Drizzle generously with honey and dust with powdered sugar before serving. Enjoy your homemade Sfingi!
