📋 Here’s What You’ll Need:

1 cup whole milk (lukewarm)

2 tbsp granulated sugar

2 tsp active dry yeast

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour

½ tsp salt

1 large egg, lightly beaten

Extra Light Olive Oil (for frying)

½ cup granulated sugar

1 tbsp cinnamon (adjust to taste)

Optional: ½ tsp ground cardamom (for extra spice) 🧁

🔪 How to Make Them: 1️⃣ Prepare the Dough: Combine lukewarm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it foam for 5-10 minutes. Add flour, salt, egg, and oil, then knead until smooth. 💪 2️⃣ First Rise: Let the dough rise in the fridge for 3 hours (or overnight) for better flavor! ⏳ 3️⃣ Shape the Doughnuts: Roll out the dough, cut into circles, and create the iconic doughnut holes. 🍩 4️⃣ Second Rise: Let them puff up for 35-45 minutes. ⏱ 5️⃣ Fry to Perfection: Fry them until golden brown and crispy! 🍳 6️⃣ Cinnamon Sugar Coating: Toss those doughnuts in a cinnamon-sugar mix while they’re still warm. 😍

💡 Pro Tips: 🌡 Oil Temperature: Make sure the oil is at 350°F (180°C) to avoid greasy doughnuts. ⏲ Don’t Rush the Rise: Let the dough rest to ensure light, fluffy doughnuts! 🍩 Avoid Overcrowding: Fry a few at a time for even cooking. 👌
