Instructions

1

Prepare the dough, let it rise, and fry the donuts as usual.

Tip: Well-proofed dough is full of gas bubbles, creating a light donut.
2

Toss the fried donuts in powdered sugar.

Tip: Powdered sugar sticks better to the hot, oily surface.
3

Serve by placing a dollop of cold yogurt on the plate, piling the hot donuts on top, and drizzling with honey.

Tip: The temperature contrast enhances the sensory experience.

Recipe FAQ

Which yogurt should I buy?
Definitely thick, authentic Greek yogurt. Regular yogurt is too runny and will make the donuts soggy.
