For 6 portions

Ingredients

300 g plain flour
10 g (1 packet) baking powder
250 g plain yogurt
70 g granulated sugar
150 ml milk
1 egg
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
oil for frying
granulated sugar for coating

Preparation procedure

Preparing the dough In a bowl, whisk the egg with the sugar until frothy. Add the yogurt, mix, and gradually fold in the milk with the lemon zest.
Dry ingredients In another bowl, sift the plain flour with the baking powder. Gradually add the initial dry mixture in parts to the wet mixture and stir until a smooth dough without lumps forms.
Frying the doughnuts Heat the oil in a pan to about 170 °C (roughly until bubbles form on the surface of the dough). Using two teaspoons, form small doughnuts (diameter ~3 cm) and fry them for 2 minutes on each side until golden.
Coating in sugar Let the finished doughnuts drain briefly on paper towels, then coat them in granulated sugar while they're still warm.
Serving Place them on a tray and serve warm with a cup of coffee or tea.
