Recipe Summary Russian Doughnuts

Delicious doughnuts made with a cheese-enriched dough. Tvorog (Russian cottage cheese) is traditionally used for this recipe, but it works very well with farmer's cheese or ricotta, too.

Ingredients | Mini Cinnamon Doughnuts Cosy Club

9 ounces farmer's cheese

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 eggs

1 tablespoon white sugar

½ teaspoon vanilla extract, or to taste (Optional)

¼ teaspoon salt

oil for frying

1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or to taste (Optional)

Directions

Mix farmer's cheese, flour, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt together in a bowl until a sticky dough forms.

Roll dough into 1-inch balls with wet hands to prevent sticking.

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). The oil should be hot but not smoking. It is ready for frying if you see little air bubbles around a wooden spoon placed in the oil.

Fry a batch of the dough balls in the hot oil until golden, about 2 minutes. Place doughnuts on paper towels to soak up excess oil. Repeat with remaining dough. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.

Use any color of decorating sugar you prefer.

If you want your doughnuts to have a smoother surface, press the cheese through a sieve before adding to the mixture.
