Reaction from those who eat them makes them worth the effort! assures Suzanne McKinley of Lyons, Georgia. Ingredients:
1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast |
1 cup warm water (110° to 115°) |
1 cup warm milk (110° to 115°) |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1 tablespoon salt |
3 tablespoons shortening |
4 to 4-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
oil for deep-fat frying |
glaze: |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast in water. Add milk, sugar, salt, shortening and 2 cups flour; beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
2. On a floured surface, knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl; turn once to grease top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
3. Punch down and shape into 15 ovals, 5-1/2-in. round by 1/8-in. thick. Heat 3-4 in. of oil to 375° in deep-fat fryer. Fry ovals, one at a time, 3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Drain. Mix sugar and cinnamon; sprinkle over warm pastries. Yield: 15 servings.
