Let’s Make Some Delicious Sufganiyot!
Now that you’ve got your ingredients ready, it’s time to get cooking:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and instant yeast. Stir to mix well.
- Add the eggs, warm milk, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix until you have a dough.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a cloth, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick.
- Use a round cookie cutter to cut out circles of dough. Place a spoonful of jam or jelly in the center of half of the circles, then top with the remaining circles to form a doughnut.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 375°F (190°C). Carefully drop the doughnuts in batches into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Remove the doughnuts from the oil and drain on paper towels. While they’re still warm, dust them with powdered sugar.
And there you have it! Your very own batch of Sufganiyot, ready to be enjoyed with family and friends. Whether you’re celebrating a holiday or just looking for something sweet, these doughnuts are sure to make any occasion special. Enjoy!
