Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup milk
2 tbsp butter (melted)
Oil for frying
1/2 cup sugar
1 tbsp cinnamon
Instructions
1. Mix dry ingredients – In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
2. Add wet ingredients – Pour in milk and melted butter. Mix until a soft dough forms (add a touch more flour if too sticky).
3. Shape – On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into strips, twist each strip, and pinch the ends to hold the shape.
4. Heat oil – In a deep pan, heat oil to about 350°F (175°C).
5. Fry – Fry the twisted dough pieces until golden brown on all sides, about 1–2 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
6. Cinnamon sugar coating – Mix sugar and cinnamon in a shallow bowl. While donuts are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar until coated.
7. Serve warm for best texture.
If you want, I can also give you a fluffier yeast-based version like bakery donuts. That way they’ll be softer and airy instead of biscuit-like. Would you like me to share that?
