Pumpkin Sufganiot with Cranberry Jelly

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 packet (2 1/4 teaspoons) instant yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk, warmed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup cranberry jelly (for filling)
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, instant yeast, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Mix well and set aside.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, warmed milk, eggs, and melted butter.
  3. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
  4. Cover the dough with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
  5. Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thickness. Cut out circles using a doughnut cutter or a cookie cutter.
  6. Heat vegetable oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the dough rings until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side. Remove them and drain on paper towels.
  7. Once cool enough to handle, fill a piping bag with cranberry jelly and fill each sufganiot by inserting the tip into the side and squeezing gently.
  8. If desired, dust the finished doughnuts with powdered sugar for a sweet touch.
  9. Enjoy your Pumpkin Sufganiot warm or at room temperature. They are a sure hit with family and friends!

These Pumpkin Sufganiot are not only delicious but also a beautiful representation of the season. Whether you’re hosting a party or simply enjoying a quiet evening, these treats are perfect for creating wonderful moments.
