Title: Easy Doughnut Holes
Ingredients:
– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/4 cup granulated sugar
– 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 cup milk
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– Vegetable oil, for frying
– 1/2 cup powdered sugar, for coating
Instructions:
1. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth.
3. Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are okay.
4. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C) using a candy thermometer.
5. Using a small cookie scoop or two spoons, carefully drop rounded tablespoons of the batter into the hot oil, being cautious not to overcrowd the pot. Fry the doughnut holes for about 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and fully cooked through.
6. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried doughnut holes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
7. Allow the doughnut holes to cool slightly. While still warm, toss them in a bowl of powdered sugar until evenly coated.
8. Serve the Easy Doughnut Holes warm and enjoy with your favorite hot beverage or a glass of cold milk.
