Ingredients
- 200 grams flour
- 250 grams dense cottage cheese
- 1 egg
- 50 grams granulated sugar
- A pinch of salt
- 1 pack vanilla sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 500 milliliters vegetable oil for frying
- Optional: powdered sugar for dusting
Step 1: Prepare the Egg Mixture
In a bowl, mix together 1 egg, 50 grams of granulated sugar, and 1 pack of vanilla sugar until well combined.
This will create a sweet and flavorful base for the donuts.
Step 2: Combine Cottage Cheese
Next, rub 250 grams of dense cottage cheese through a sieve into the bowl with the egg mixture.
This will ensure a smooth texture and eliminate any lumps.
Step 3: Add Dry Ingredients
Add 200 grams of flour, a pinch of salt, and 2 teaspoons of baking powder to the cottage cheese and egg mixture.
Stir well until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined to form a dough.
Step 4: Shape the Donuts
Pinch off pieces of dough and roll them into balls about the size of a walnut.
Make sure they are evenly sized for uniform cooking.
Step 5: Heat the Oil and Fry
Pour 500 milliliters of vegetable oil into a thick-walled saucepan and heat it on medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully add the donut balls to the oil.
Fry them until they are golden brown, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy
Once the donuts are golden brown, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
For an extra touch, you can dust the fried donuts with powdered sugar before serving.
Enjoy your delicious homemade treats!
