What you’ll need: | |
4 large | fresh eggs |
3/4 cup | sugar |
2 1/2 cups flour – plus additional for rolling | |
1 1/2 tsp | baking powder |
12oz | Honey |
1 tsp | Pure Vanilla Extract |
pinch | salt |
48oz | Vegetable Oil |
Cinnamon Sugar – for Garnish
Sprinkles – Optional for Garnish
What to do:
Into your mixing bowl add the flour, baking powder & salt and mix to combine. Create a well in the bottom and add your eggs, sugar & vanilla extract and mix on low with your paddle attachment until well combined and a dough has formed. If dough is too sticky add a little flour. Allow your dough to rest for approx 10-15 mins.
Add the oil to deep sided pan and heat to 350 degrees. WHILE oil is heating. Roll out your dough onto a lightly floured surface into strands and then cut them into roughly 1″ pieces. With floured hands, roll each piece into a ball (about the size of a large marble). Continue until all dough is formed into balls.
When oil is at 350 degrees. Add a few balls at a time to oil (DO NOT CROWD PAN) Once the balls have risen to the top you’ll need to carefully turn them with a spoon or chopstick (whatever utensil works best for you) until they turn a nice golden color. With a skimmer transfer balls to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the extra oil. Continue until all balls have been fried. You need to monitor the oil to be sure it maintains a 350 degree temperature (I recommend a candy thermometer)
In a separate pan add your honey & heat over low heat until honey is melted. Add the cooked dough balls & coat well with honey. CAREFULLY Transfer coated honey balls to your serving tray. Arrange them in either a wreath shape or a cone shape (tree like). Generously sprinkle with Cinnamon Sugar or Sprinkles.
Buon Appetito!
