Method

  1. Step 1:

    Sift together the flour and baking powder into a bowl and stir in the sugar. Beat together the eggs, oil and milk then add to the dry ingredients. Mix together until a smooth dough forms.

  2. Step 2:

    Turn the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll out to about 1cm thickness. Cut circles out of the dough using a small, floured cutter.

  3. Step 3:

    In a deep saucepan heat some vegetable oil to about 170°C then fry the doughnuts 2-3 at a time by carefully placing in the oil for 3-4 minutes until they are golden brown on the bottom. Then turn them over and cook for a further 2-3 minutes until golden in colour and cooked through. Drain on kitchen paper.

  4. Step 4:

    Whilst still warm roll the doughnuts in some extra caster sugar.

  5. Step 5:

    Eat on the same day or keep in an airtight container and eat within 1-2 days.
