About the Recipe
Quick & easy donut holes! The ultimate shortcut to sufganiyot! No kneading, no waiting, no shaping—just mix, fry, and enjoy.
Frying Tips: 1 Use a thermometer (linked in my Amazon storefront) to keep the oil at the perfect temp. Too hot = burnt outside, raw inside. Too cold = greasy donuts. 2 Be patient! Let them cook fully for that perfect golden-brown finish. Delicious, simple, and done in minutes—your Hanukkah just got sweeter!

Cooking Instructions
1. Heat the Oil: Warm your frying oil to 365°F.
2. Prepare the Dough: Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Mix until the dough is smooth—it should be neither too runny nor too thick.
3. Scoop the Dough: Use a mini scooper coated in oil for uniform donut holes.
4. Fry the Donuts: Carefully spoon or scoop the dough into the hot oil. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding.
5. Rotate While Frying: Gently turn the donuts to ensure even cooking.
6. Drain the Oil: Once golden brown, remove the donuts and place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
7. Add the Finishing Touch: Generously dust with powdered sugar.
8. Serve & Enjoy: Pair with your favorite dips and savor every bite.
Happy frying!
