Ingredients

Scale

Donut Dough

  • 1½ cups (190 g) self-rising flour

  • 1 cup (250 ml) Greek yogurt

For Frying

  • Neutral oil (vegetable or canola), enough to fill pot ~3 inches deep

Cinnamon Sugar Coating (Optional)

  • ¼ cup (50 g) granulated white sugar

  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Instructions

1️⃣ Heat the Oil

Pour oil into a heavy-bottomed pot, about 3 inches deep.
Heat to 350°F / 180°C over medium-high heat.

2️⃣ Make the Dough

In a bowl, mix self-rising flour and Greek yogurt until a sticky dough forms.

3️⃣ Knead Lightly

Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead gently for about 1 minute, until it comes together.

4️⃣ Shape the Donuts

Pinch off pieces of dough (about 1 tablespoon each) and roll into small balls.

5️⃣ Fry

Test the oil by frying one donut first.
Fry donuts in batches for 2–3 minutes, turning occasionally, until puffed and golden brown.

6️⃣ Drain & Coat

Remove with a slotted spoon and drain briefly on paper towels or a wire rack.
While still warm, toss in cinnamon sugar if desired.

Notes

  • If dough is too sticky, sprinkle a little more flour as you knead.

  • Don’t overcrowd the pan — too many donuts drops oil temperature.

  • For the best texture, serve warm right after frying.
