Follow The Directions

01

Step

Gather all ingredients.

02

Step

In a large bowl, harmoniously blend the flour, yogurt, eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar, and a whisper of salt. Mix until just combined, forming a soft dough. (5 minutes)

03

Step

Allow the dough to rest, covered, for 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the dough to relax.

04

Step

Gently shape the dough into approximately 2-inch spheres, preparing them for their golden plunge.

05

Step

In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to a shimmering 365 degrees F (190 degrees C) over medium-high heat. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Carefully introduce the sufganiyot into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook until they achieve a radiant golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch, turning halfway through to ensure even coloring.

07

Step

With a slotted spoon, lift the golden orbs from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels, allowing excess oil to drain. Repeat with the remaining dough.

08

Step

Embrace the moment! Fill each sufganiyot with your favorite jam or jelly, dust generously with confectioners' sugar, and savor the delight.

For a lighter sufganiyot, avoid overmixing the dough. A gentle touch is key.
Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even frying. Use a thermometer to monitor.
Experiment with different fillings! Chocolate ganache, custard, or even savory options can be delightful.

    I found that using a lower temperature (350F) and cooking them a little longer helped them cook more evenly inside.
