Ingredients
- 1 packet active dry yeast (1/4 oz. (5mm) or 2 1/4 teaspoons or 7 g) )
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/3 cup water
- 8 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups scalded milk
- 1/2 cup butter (melted)
- 8 large eggs (beaten)
- oil (for frying)
- sugar (for coating)
Steps
-
Dissolve the yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar in warm water. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt, then make a well in the center. Add the milk, butter, eggs, and yeast mixture into the well.
-
Beat thoroughly to form a soft and smooth dough. Cover and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour. Heat oil to 350°F (176°C).
-
While the oil is heating up, shape the dough into flat round discs, pulling the dough outward and leaving a small indentation in the center.
-
Place the dough into the oil and fry until browned. Drain on paper towels, then shake in a bag with sugar.
