Aloha! Here in Hawaii, malasadas are the ONLY donuts we have! They are sold at fundraisers and are very popular. There are many Portuguese descendants in the islands. Onolicious! Ingredients:
1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast |
1 teaspoon white sugar |
1/4 cup warm water (110 degrees f/45 degrees c) |
6 eggs |
6 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/4 cup butter, melted |
1 cup evaporated milk |
1 cup water |
1 teaspoon salt |
2 quarts vegetable oil for frying |
2 cups white sugar |
Directions:
1. Dissolve yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar in 1/4 cup warm water; set aside.
2. In small bowl, beat eggs until thick.
3. Put flour in large bowl, making a well in the center. Into the well add yeast, eggs, 1/2 cup sugar, melted butter, milk, 1 cup water, and salt. Beat thoroughly to form a soft, smooth dough. Cover, let dough rise until doubled.
4. Heat oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Drop dough by big teaspoonfuls into oil, fry until golden brown. Drain on paper towels, shake in a bag of sugar to coat, and serve hot.
