I don't have many breakfast recipes - I tend to be a Quaker Oats guy in the morning, but here's a recipe that's nice for leisurely weekend mornings.
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup oil
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemons, rind of
3 eggs
additional oil (for frying)
additional powdered sugar
Directions:
1. Sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg.
2. Combine water, milk, oil, and peel and bring to a boil.
3. Add the flour all at once and beat until a ball forms.
4. Remove from heat and beat in eggs.
5. Heat the oil to 350 degrees.
6. Fry spoonfuls of batter for 4-6 minutes; when done, drain on paper towels and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
7. Between batches, give the oil several minutes to get up to full heat; this makes the puffs much less oily.
