    Source of Recipe

    Debbie King

    Recipe Introduction

    Despite the name, oliebollen — or oil balls — are delicious and zealously consumed over Christmas in The Netherlands. These bite-size flour and raisin pastries are deep-fried and sprinkled with sugar.

    List of Ingredients

    1 package yeast
    1 teaspoon sugar
    3/4 cup warm water
    3 eggs, beaten
    2 cups warm milk
    3 tablespoon light corn syrup
    4 cups flour
    1 tablespoon salt
    1 cup raisins
    1 cup chopped apples


    Recipe

    Dissolve yeast and sugar in water; let stand in warm place for 30 minutes. Combine eggs, milk, corn syrup, raisins, apples, and yeast mixture in large bowl. Add flour and salt into mixture.

    Mix well for 2-3 minutes. Test a spoonful of dough to see if it will fall into a "lump" form from the spoon. If not, add more milk. Let rise in warm place for 2 hours.

    Drop by teaspoons into 375^ of vegtable oil. Fry until golden brown. Top with powdered sugar while still warm.
