Chanukah Dutch Friend Puffs
INGREDIENTS:
3/4 cup milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup oil
2 eggs
3 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2-1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup raisins or chopped apples (if you like)
1/4 cup sugar mixed with 1/2 tsp cinnamon
METHOD:
In large bowl on low speed, mix milk, sugar, oil, eggs, baking powder, salt, and 1 cup of the flour.
Scrape bowl constantly and mix only about 30 seconds until combined. Increase speed to medium and continue mixing for 2 minutes scraping bowl as needed.
Stir in remaining flour and fruit. (if using fruit)
In a high sided fryer heat 2-3 inches of oil. Drop batter by teaspoonsfull into hot oil. As the puffs rise turn them. Fry for about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Remove and drain on paper towels or brown bags (These are best if available.)
Roll puffs in sugar mixture before serving.
Note: at my house we always drained fried foods on brown paper grocery bags on a cookie sheet in the oven at 200- 250 degrees F and
they are never greasy - this works for all fried Chanukah foods.
