These are one of those neat treats that I just get a craving for them it seems in June.. If you don’t have an electric deep fryer do think about getting one..It makes it so much more convenient to do things like this on spur of the moment. Read more ...and makes everyone very happy you did! Ingredients:
1/2 c dark brown sugar, firmly packed |
1 egg beaten |
1/2 c molasses |
1/2 c sour cream |
1/2 tsp baking soda |
2 tsp baking powder |
3 tsp ginger (yes three) |
1/2 tsp salt |
2 1/2 -3 c flour |
lemon glaze |
1 c confectioners sugar |
1 tbs cream |
1 tsp lemon juice |
1/2 tsp ground lemon peel or sprinkle glazed doughnuts with grated fresh peel, mix together until smooth. |
glaze doughnuts while warm. |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients except flour and stir well.
2. Add just enough flour to make a soft dough, it should leave the sides of the bowl and be JUST firm enough to shape.
3. Roll out lightly on a floured counter (well floured, this is sticky dough) and cut with a doughnut cutter.
4. Fry in deep hot fat, 360, turning once.
5. Drain on paper towel or brown paper bags.
6. You will probably do best with frying them 3-4 at a time, depending on the size of your fryer.
7. The doughnuts will be dark brown because of the molasses.
8. Repeat with all of the dough, and then fry the doughnut holes. *wink*
9. About 18-24 depending on size of cutter
