Yeast donuts with jam like Berliners, only the jam is not pumped into the ready-made ones with a syringe, but is placed immediately before frying. The dough is kept overnight in the cold, saturated with aroma and taste due to the long cold rest.

How to cook Donuts for Hannukah "Sufganiot"

Step 1

Mix dry ingredients - flour, yeast, salt, sugar. Add yolks, water and oil. Mix everything with a mixer or in HP until elastic, 5-8 minutes. Cover with foil and leave in the refrigerator overnight. The next morning, take the dough out and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.

Step 2

Lightly dust the rolling surface with flour. Roll out the dough to a thickness of 6-7 mm. Beat egg white to stiff peaks. Cut out circles from the dough with a diameter of about 5-6 cm.

Step 3

Lubricate the circle of dough along the edge of the circle with protein, put half a tsp. jam in the middle and cover with a second circle of dough. Tightly, without gaps, press the circles to each other. Spread out on baking paper for proofing. Cover and rest for about 30 minutes.

Step 4

Heat fryer (oil height about 8 cm) to a temperature slightly above average. Fry on both sides for about a minute or until a beautiful dark golden color. Place on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Immediately roll hot in icing sugar and serve hot.
