Ingredients
  • Yeast Mixture:
  • 1-1/2 cups warm water
  • 1-3/4 ounces fresh yeast
  • 1 Tbsp. granulated sugar
  • Doughnut Ingredients:
  • 3 eggs
  • 1/2 cup oil
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup non dairy creamer
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp. lemon peel, grated
  • 6 - 7 cups of All-purpose flour
  • oil for frying
  • confectioners' sugar and cinnamon
  • Note: If I'm in the mood I will add some finely diced apple to the mixture.

Directions
  1. Use a 2 quart saucepan.
  2. Place eggs, oil, sugar, nondairy creamer, vanilla, and grated lemon peel in a large mixing bowl.
  3. Add yeast mixture and flour until soft dough is formed.
  4. Note: This dough should not be dry.
  5. Knead the dough for a few minutes.
  6. Cover and allow it to rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1-1/2 hours.
  7. Roll out dough 1/2 inch thick on floured surface.
  8. Cut out circles with a doughnut cutter.
  9. Place 3 - 4 inches oil in a 2 quart saucepan and heat over a medium-high heat until hot.
  10. Place no more than 4 doughnuts in the oil at a time.
  11. Brown on one side, then turn to brown on the other.
  12. Remove with a slotted spoon.
  13. Drain and cool on paper towels.
  14. Dust with a mixture of confectioners' sugar and cinnamon.
  15. *To test if dough is ready for rolling, place a small piece in a glass of water - if the dough floats to the top, it is ready.
  16. Makes 5 - 6 dozen depending on the size.
