List of Ingredients




2 tablespoons active dry yeast
4 tablespoons sugar, plus sugar for rolling
3/4 cup lukewarm milk
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 egg yolks
Pinch of salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 1/2 tablespoons softened butter, at room temperature
Vegetable oil, for deep-frying
Plum, strawberry, or apricot preserves



Recipe



Step 1
Dissolve the yeast and 2 tablespoons of sugar in the milk. Let sit for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, sift the flour, then place it on a cutting board and make a well in the center. Pour the yeast mixture into the well, add the egg yolks, salt, cinnamon, and the remaining sugar. Mix the flour into the egg mixture and, when you have a dough, knead it well. Work the butter into the dough and knead until it is elastic. Cover and let rise overnight in the refrigerator.

Step 2
Sprinkle a little flour on a board. Roll the dough out to 1/8-inch inch thickness. With a drinking glass, cut the dough into rounds about 2 inches in diameter. Cover and let rise for 15 minutes.

Step 3
With your hands, form the rounds of dough into balls. Insert 1 teaspoon of jam into each and enclose completely. Pour 2 inches of oil into an electric frying pan or Frialator and heat to 375 degrees. Gently drop the doughnuts into the oil, 4 or 5 at a time, turning them when they are brown. Drain on paper towels. When slightly cooled, roll in sugar and serve immediately. Makes about 24 doughnuts.
