The heart of this culinary marvel lies in its simplicity. The recipe is reminiscent of the two-ingredient pizza dough, but with a twist tailored for donuts. The primary ingredients? Self-rising flour and yogurt.
If you’re wondering about alternatives, there are substitutes available for both these ingredients, ensuring that no one misses out on this delightful experience.
As you embark on this journey, you’ll notice the dough’s unique texture – soft and slightly sticky. But resist the temptation to add more flour.

The beauty of this recipe is that there’s no kneading involved. Just ensure a thorough mix to achieve a uniform dough, and you’re set.
Now, the exciting part – frying. With no resting time required, you can dive straight into this step. Pour the dough into a piping bag with a round tip, or even a Ziploc bag will do.

As you release the dough into hot oil preheated to around 320-330°F, don’t be alarmed if they sink initially. They’ll rise to the occasion in a few moments, thanks to the activating baking powder. Ensure they’re sizzling and bubbling at the edges, frying until they achieve a golden hue.
With the donuts fried to perfection, it’s time to dress them up.

The dough itself is devoid of sugar, but fear not, the sweetness comes from the toppings. The first variant is the classic sugar donut. Simply tossing them in plain sugar transforms these fried delights into a sugary treat that’s hard to resist.
For those with a penchant for glazed donuts, there’s a treat in store. A luscious glaze made from melted butter, powdered sugar, and warm milk awaits.

Drench the donuts in this concoction, letting the excess drip off, and what you have is a treat reminiscent of the famed Krispy Kreme donuts.
But why stop there? For the chocolate aficionados, there’s a twist.
Using the leftover glaze, add in some cocoa powder or melted chocolate, depending on your preference. Coat the donuts in this chocolatey goodness, and let them set.

The result? Donuts that rival their yeast-raised counterparts in texture and taste. They boast a softness that’s unparalleled, with a bounce that’s characteristic of traditional donuts.
