Jelly Doughnuts
- 2 1/2 cups self-rising flour
- 2 (8-ounce) cartons vanilla low-fat yogurt
- 2 tablespoons vanilla sugar
- 2 eggs
- 6 cups canola oil
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 cup seedless strawberry jelly
- In a large bowl, place flour, yogurt, vanilla sugar and eggs. Knead until all ingredients are combined and a sticky, doughy batter is formed. Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rest for 15-20 minutes.
- Heat 6 cups canola oil in a 6-quart stockpot, covered, over medium heat.
- When dough is ready, uncover oil and raise heat to high.
- Scoop out a tablespoonful of batter and drop in oil. Don't make the doughnuts too big, so they can cook through.
- You should be able to fry about 7 doughnuts at a time. Using a slotted spoon, turn doughnuts when halfway browned, about 30 seconds to 1 minute. Fry for another 2-3 minutes or until entire doughnut is deep golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove doughnuts and let cool on paper towel-lined plates. Repeat previous 2 steps with remaining batter.
- Fill a squeeze bottle with jelly and inject a little into each doughnut.
- Roll each doughnut in confectioner's sugar. Or, shake 3 doughnuts at a time in a paper bag filled with confectioner's sugar.
