2 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk |
6 tablespoons plus 1 cup sugar |
2 1/2 tablespoons orange juice |
1 tablespoon finely grated orange peel |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
2 3/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided |
1 1/2 cups self-rising flour |
vegetable oil (for deep-frying) |
Directions:
1. Whisk eggs, egg yolk, 6 tablespoons sugar, orange juice, orange peel, vanilla, and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in large bowl. Let stand 5 minutes, then stir in flour. Mix 1 cup sugar and 2 1/4 teaspoons cinnamon in medium bowl.
2. Pour enough oil into heavy large saucepan to reach depth of 1 inch. Attach deep-fry thermometer to side of pan and heat oil to 355°F to 360°F over medium-high heat.
