For a richer flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of rum or brandy to the dough. If you don't have compressed fresh yeast, you can substitute with 2 1/4 teaspoons of active dry yeast. Just make sure to proof it in the warm milk for a longer time until foamy. To prevent the oliebollen from becoming too greasy, maintain the oil temperature consistently around 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

01 Step
Recipe View Activate the Yeast: Break up the compressed yeast and stir into the lukewarm milk. Allow it to stand for 5-10 minutes until dissolved and slightly frothy. This indicates the yeast is active and ready to use.
02 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, sift together the flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and egg, stirring until a smooth batter forms. Incorporate the currants, raisins, and chopped apple, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
03 Step
Recipe View First Rise: Cover the bowl with a clean cloth or plastic wrap and place it in a warm, draft-free area. Let the dough rise until it has doubled in volume, approximately 1 hour.
04 Step
Recipe View Heat the Oil: Pour the vegetable oil into a deep-fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Heat the oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature control.
05 Step
Recipe View Shape and Fry: Using two metal spoons, carefully shape scoops of dough into roughly 12 ball shapes. Gently drop them into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry the oliebollen until they are golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes, turning them occasionally for even browning.
06 Step
Recipe View Drain and Dust: Remove the doughnuts with a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
07 Step
Recipe View Serve: Generously dust the oliebollen with confectioners' sugar. Transfer them to a serving platter and dust with more confectioners' sugar just before serving. Enjoy them warm for the best experience!
