Sufganiyot Recipe


Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1/4 cup sugar

  • 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast

  • 1/2 cup milk, warmed

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1/2 tsp salt

  • Oil for frying

  • Powdered sugar for dusting

  • Jam or jelly for filling (such as raspberry or strawberry)


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until bubbly.

  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a dough forms.

  3. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size (about 1 hour).

  4. Once risen, punch down the dough and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut into circles using a cookie cutter.

  5. Let the circles rise for another 30 minutes.

  6. Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the donuts until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side.

  7. Drain on paper towels and let cool slightly. Fill with jam using a piping bag and dust with powdered sugar.
