INGREDIENTS5 tablespoons of white sugar
2 eggs
5 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons of vanilla essence
2 & 3/4 cups of cake flour
3 teaspoons of baking powder
300ml of buttermilk
1L of oil for deep frying
Fine Coconut for sprinkling
METHOD
Whisk eggs and sugar in bowl until light and fluffy. Add vanilla and oil and beat till creamy.
Now add the flour , baking powder and buttermilk and mix well , it should be a soft but stiff batter . There should be no dribbles of batter when you spoon some .
Allow mixture to rest covered for at least 30mins , so it can be made ahead of time ...
Place spoonfuls of mixture in hot oil and fry until golden brown.
TIP - Dip spoon in cold water to ensure that dough separates from spoon to form neatly rounded balls when dropped in oil. If you don't get them perfectly round , do not fret ... I don't ... And it's OK .
THE SYRUP
2 cups of sugar
2 cups of water
Some stick cinnamon
Allow to simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes -
Switch off the heat of the syrup and dunk the doughnuts once or twice , remove immediately and sprinkle generously with fine coconut .
