Recipe: French Doughnuts (using a cookie press)
Breakfast and BrunchFRENCH DOUGHNUTS
1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1 cup water
1/2 cup butter or margarine
4 eggs
Deep fat for frying heat to 370 degrees F
Combine the sifted flour with sugar and salt. Sift together into a bowl and set aside.
Put 1 cup water and butter in saucepan set over heat and stir until butter melts. Bring to a full boil and add all the flour mixture. As soon as flour is added, stir the mixture over low heat.
Break egg into the ball of dough and beat it well. Repeat beating (one at a time). Repeat beating all the eggs in and beat thoroughly. Then let dough chill about an hour.
Put the dough in a cookie press using largest serrated tip and force it out to make a circle on lightly oiled or buttered wide spatula. Slip the spatula into the preheated oil. The dough will slide off. Repeat frying only a few at a time. Fry to golden brown on each side, then lift out and drain on absorbent paper.
Dear Audrey,
I don't know if this recipe is originally from the Mirro Cooky Press recipe book, but it looks like it may be. The dough is actually a cream puff batter and should turn out very light.
Happy Cooking,
Betsy
