Ingredients
Flavored donut dough:
- 400 g of wheat flour
- 80 g grated coconut
- Grated zest and juice of 2 large fresh oranges
- 100 g caster sugar, 1 sachet of baking powder (11 g), 2 eggs, 50 g melted butter and 1 pinch of salt
Preparation
- Blanch the eggs and sugar: in a bowl, whisk the eggs with the sugar until the mixture whitens and becomes foamy.
- Flavor with citrus and coconut: add the zest and juice of the oranges, the melted butter and the grated coconut. Mix well.
- Incorporate the flour: sift the flour with the baking powder and salt over the liquid mixture. Mix with a spatula to obtain a thick, supple and very fragrant paste.
- Frying the donuts: take small portions of dough with two tablespoons and place them delicately in the hot oil (165°C). Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, turning, until golden brown and puffy.
- Finishing: drain on absorbent paper and immediately roll in crystal sugar flavored with orange zest.
