What to add to the dough for fried donuts so that they do not absorb oil: a very simple ingredient

Fried donuts are a true taste of childhood. They are very fluffy and sweet. But quite often the products are greasy. This is because they absorb oil. To prevent this from happening, add one simple ingredient to the dough.

The idea of making crispy and golden donuts that do not absorb oil is published on the Instagram page of food blogger juli co.ok. Be sure to add vodka to the dough.

Ingredients:

• cheese – 300 g (at least 3 times ground)
• large eggs – 2 pcs
• powdered sugar – 3 tbsp with a slide of powdered sugar for the dough + a small amount for sprinkling the finished donuts
• wheat flour – 2 cups
• a pinch of salt
• baking powder – 2 tsp
• lemon essence
• vodka – 25 ml
• oil for frying

Method of preparation:

1. All ingredients should be at room temperature.

2. Heat the oil in a wide and low saucepan.

3. For the dough, mix the eggs, sugar, and cottage cheese into a homogeneous mass, then add the sifted flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt, stirring all the time.

4. Add vodka and flavoring at the end. Stir.

5. The dough for donuts is quite sticky, so to facilitate the formation of donuts, grease your hands with vegetable oil, and then form mini-balls (about 3-4 cm in diameter) from the dough.

6. Throw them into hot oil. Fry until golden brown.

7. Put the fried doughnuts on a plate covered with a paper towel to drain off the excess oil.

8. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
