Sufganiyot Recipes

SUFGANIOT

Steps:

• Dissolve the yeast and 2 tablespoons white sugar in the warm milk.
• Sift flour into a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add the yeast mixture, egg yolks, salt, nutmeg, butter, and remaining sugar. Stir flour into center. Once combined turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface knead until dough is elastic. Cover and let dough rise overnight in the refrigerator.
• Remove dough from the refrigerator and roll on a lightly floured surface to 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Cut into 2-inch rounds. Cover and let rise for about 15 to 20 minutes.
• In a medium bowl combine the cottage cheese, egg, 3 tablespoons white sugar, and vanilla. Beat until well combined.
• Form dough rounds into a ball and insert about 2 teaspoons of cheese filling into each of the rounds.
• In a heavy pot, pour in oil to about the 2 1/2 inch mark. Heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Drop sufganiot (doughnuts) into the oil in batches, turning when browned. Drain on paper towels and roll in confectioners' sugar.

SUFGANIYOT

Steps:

• Combine flour, eggs, yogurt, sugar, salt and vanilla sugar in a large mixing bowl. Mix well. Set the dough aside for 30 minutes.
• Form the dough into balls with a 2-inch diameter.
• Heat the vegetable oil to 365 degrees F (190 degrees C) in a large pot or deep fryer over high heat. It is best to use a basket or slotted spoon for deep frying the sufganiyot, as the oil will be extremely hot. Deep fry the dough in the oil. Let the sufganiyot cool and drain on paper towels.

SUFGANIYOT

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the whole wheat flour, yeast, cloves and 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour. In a small saucepan, heat the water, honey and oil to 120°-130°. Add to dry ingredients; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add egg and vanilla; beat 2 minutes longer. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough (dough will be sticky)., Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour., Punch down dough. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; roll dough to 1/4-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 2-in. biscuit cutter., In an electric skillet or deep fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry doughnuts, a few at a time, for 45 seconds on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels., Cut a small hole in the tip of a pastry bag or in a corner of a resealable bag; insert a small tip. Fill bag with preserves., With a small knife, pierce a hole into the side of each doughnut; fill with preserves. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Serve warm.

SUFGANIYOT

Steps:

• Microwave the milk in a small bowl until 105 to 110 degrees F. Stir in the yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar; let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Whisk together the flour and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook.
• Add the yeast mixture, butter, vanilla, zest, egg, egg yolks and remaining 1/2 cup sugar to the flour mixture. Mix with a spoon until the dough just comes together, about 1 minute. (It's OK if a little of the flour remains loose at the bottom of the bowl, it will all come together while kneading.) Knead the dough on medium speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead into a smooth ball, about 1 minute. Lightly spray the mixing bowl with nonstick cooking spray and return the dough to the bowl; cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until it has doubled in size, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently roll out into a 1/2-inch-thick round. Using a 3-inch round cookie cutter or drinking glass, cut the rounds out as closely together as possible. Place the rounds about 2 inches apart on a baking sheet lightly sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
• Lightly spray the tops with the cooking spray. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise again until puffed, at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour. The dough rounds may not increase in size during this proofing, which is fine. The point is to let the dough rest before frying, resulting in pillowy doughnuts.
• To fry the doughnuts: Line a baking sheet with a double layer of paper towels for draining. Put 1/2 cup granulated sugar in a medium bowl for coating the fried doughnuts.
• Fill a large, heavy bottomed pot with 3 inches vegetable oil (about 8 cups) and insert a deep-fry thermometer. Place over medium-high heat and bring the oil temperature to 345 to 350 degrees F. Do not let the oil get any hotter than 350 degrees or the outside of the doughnuts will burn before the insides are cooked through.
• Working in batches of 3 to 4, carefully slip the dough rounds into the hot oil, being careful not to let the oil splash up. Fry the doughnuts until deep golden brown, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to gently flip the doughnuts over and fry until deep golden brown on the other side, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the doughnuts the paper towel-lined baking sheet. Return the oil to temperature between batches.
• Roll the warm doughnuts in the sugar to coat, then transfer them back to the baking sheet. Using a chopstick or skewer, poke a hole in the top of the donut, wiggling the stick back and forth to form a little pocket. Fill a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip with the jam of your choice and gently squeeze about 2 tablespoons into the side of each doughnut until the jam just peaks out from the hole on top. Dust the filled doughnuts with confectioners' sugar, if using, and serve hot.

HANUKKAH SUFGANIYOT

Steps:

• For the sponge: In a large mixing bowl, combine the milk and yeast, whisking until the yeast is dissolved and there are no lumps. Add the flour and using a spatula, combine until uniform. The mixture will be the consistency of pancake batter. Cover with plastic and let it sit at room temperature until bubbly, and the mixture has grown by about half its volume. This will take 20 to 25 minutes.
• For the dough: In the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the butter, sugar and salt. Mix on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Stop the mixer and scrape down the bowl with a spatula. Add the eggs and yolks, and mix again at medium speed for 1 minute. The eggs and yolks will not fully emulsify with the butter mixture, and it will resemble very wet scrambled eggs. This is ok!
• Stop the mixer and scrape down the sides and bottom again with the spatula, then add all of the flour and mix until just combined, about 10 seconds on low speed. Remove the paddle, scraping off any of the butter, egg and flour mixture back into the bowl. Switch to the dough hook and add all of the sponge. Turn the mixer on low speed and mix, kneading the dough into a smooth ball. This will take 20 to 25 minutes. You can stop the mixer halfway through and scrape down the sides with a spatula to make sure everything is fully incorporated.
• Lightly spray the top of the dough with neutral cooking spray and cover with plastic. Let it proof at room temperature until doubled in size, usually 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Gently punch down the dough, transfer to a large bowl lightly sprayed with neutral cooking spray, cover with plastic and transfer to the fridge for 3 hours or overnight.
• When you're ready to fry, set up 2 sheet trays. Cut 16 to 18 squares of parchment paper, about 3 inches square, and spray each with neutral cooking spray. Line them up on the sheet trays, without overlapping. Remove the dough from the fridge and gently turn it out onto a floured work surface. Dust the top of the dough lightly with flour and gently roll it out into a circle about 1/2 inch thick. This dough rolls best cold. Using a 2 1/2-inch round cutter, punch out circles of dough, cutting 16 to 18 rounds.
• Place the cut rounds on the squares of parchment, giving each its own square. Spray the rounds with a little neutral cooking spray and cover loosely with plastic. Allow them to proof at room temperature until doubled in size and light to the touch, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• When the dough is proofed, heat the oil in a deep pot until a deep-frying thermometer registers 350 degrees F. While it heats up, set up a sheet tray with a resting rack right by the stove. Keep a slotted spoon handy.
• When the oil is hot, pick up the rounds of dough on their parchment paper squares and carefully drop about 5 rounds at a time into the hot oil. The parchment will separate itself from the dough as it starts to fry, and you can fish it out and discard as you go. This makes transferring them to the oil very easy. Allow them to fry, flipping them with the slotted spoon, for 3 minutes on each side. They should be deep golden brown. Use the spoon to transfer them to the resting rack when done. Repeat until all the dough is fried.
• For the fillings and toppings: Place the sugar in a mixing bowl. Once the sufganiyot are cool enough to handle, gently roll each in the sugar, coating well. It's fine if they're warm when you do this. Transfer to a clean tray to continue cooling.
• Fit a piping bag with a Bismark piping tip. Fill your piping bag with your filling of choice. Once the sufganiyot are cooled to room temperature, use the piping tip to poke a hole into the side or top (a style preference) of each, and squeeze in the filling, being careful to not overfill. Repeat until all the sufganiyot are filled. Best enjoyed the day they're made!

PB&J SUFGANIYOT RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the starter: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the warm water, yeast, flour, and sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes, until starting to foam.
• Make the dough: Add the egg, egg yolks, milk, orange juice, 2 cups of flour, the salt, and vanilla to the bowl of the stand mixer. Mix on medium-low speed for about 2 minutes, until combined.
• With the mixer running, add the butter, 1 cube at a time, mixing between each addition until incorporated. Some lumps are okay.
• Add the remaining 1¼ cups of flour and mix on medium speed for about 10 minutes, until the dough is soft, pulls away from the sides of the bowl, and is no longer sticky. If the dough is still sticky, add up to ¼ cup more flour.
• Transfer the dough to a large bowl greased with butter and cover with a kitchen towel or plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and gently roll out to about ¾" thick. Using a 2½" round cutter, cut out circles of dough using a twisting motion (this will help seal the edges for a better finished shape). Reroll the dough scraps once and cut out more circles. Transfer the circles to the prepared baking sheet. Loosely cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 40-50 minutes, or until nearly doubled in size.
• Fry the sufganiyot: Heat the oil in a large, heavy saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-low heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
• Add the sugar to a shallow bowl. Add the Kroger® Strawberry Preserves and peanut butter to piping bags fitted with angled filling tips.
• Working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot, fry the sufganiyot in the hot oil until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Remove the sufganiyot from the oil and transfer directly to the bowl of sugar, rolling to coat completely. Let cool for about 5 minutes before filling.
• Pipe about ½ tablespoon each of the strawberry preserves and peanut butter through the side of each sufganiyot to fill the center.
• Serve warm.
• Enjoy!

SUFGANIYOT

Steps:

• Child: Mix together the yeast, 2 tablespoons of the sugar, and the milk. Let sit to make sure it bubbles.
• Child: Sift the flour and mix it with the remaining sugar, salt, cinnamon, egg yolks, and the yeast mixture.
• Adult with Child: Knead the dough until it forms a ball. Add the butter or margarine. Knead some more, until the butter is well absorbed. Cover with a towel and let rise overnight in the refrigerator.
• Adult: Roll out the dough to a thickness of 1/8 inch.
• Child: Cut out the dough into 24 rounds with a juice glass, or any object about 2 inches in diameter. Take 1/2 teaspoon of preserves and place in center of 12 rounds. Top with the other 12. Press down at edges, sealing with egg whites. Crimping with the thumb and second finger is best. Let rise for about 30 minutes.
• Adult: Heat 2 inches of oil to about 375°. Drop the doughnuts into the hot oil, about 5 at a time. Turn to brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
• Child: Roll the doughnuts in sugar.

SUFGANIYOT

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the warm water and yeast. Let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Add 3/4 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt; mix until well combined. Add egg yolks and remaining 1 3/4 cups flour. Mix until combined, then knead dough in bowl until all flour is incorporated. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface; knead a few minutes until smooth. Knead in margarine until incorporated.
• Transfer dough to a well-oiled bowl, turning several times to coat entirely with oil. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate overnight.
• Bring dough to room temperature, about 30 minutes. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out dough into an 11-inch square, about 1/8 inch thick. Using a 2-inch cookie cutter (or a glass), cut out about 24 (2-inch) rounds, dipping cutter in flour as needed to prevent sticking. Reroll scraps; cut out about 16 more rounds.
• Line a baking sheet with a clean kitchen towel. In a small bowl, lightly beat egg whites. Brush edge of a dough round with egg white, then mound 1/2 teaspoon jam in center. Top with another round; press edges to seal. Repeat with remaining rounds. Transfer to prepared baking sheet; let rise until puffy, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Heat a few inches of oil in a large, heavy pot until it reaches 360 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer or a scrap of dough sizzles upon contact. Working in batches of 4 or 5, carefully slip doughnuts into hot oil. Fry, turning once, until golden brown, about 1 minute (doughnuts will fry very quickly and puff up). Using a slotted spoon, transfer doughnuts to paper towels to drain.
• Place remaining 1/2 cup sugar in a medium bowl.While doughnuts are still hot, dip them in sugar, turning to coat. Serve immediately.

SUFGANIYOT (ORANGE-SCENTED JELLY DOUGHNUTS)

Steps:

• Place milk or water in small bowl. Sprinkle yeast and 1 teaspoon sugar over milk. Set aside until frothy, about 10 minutes.
• In a mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat remaining sugar with egg and egg yolk. Add sour cream, salt, vanilla extract, orange zest and yeast mixture, and mix well. With mixer running, gradually add flour. Mix until dough is soft, smooth and elastic, adding flour if dough seems very sticky, 3 to 5 minutes. Do not add more than an additional 3 tablespoons flour; dough will be somewhat sticky, but will firm up in refrigerator. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• On a floured surface, roll out dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Use a biscuit or a cookie cutter to cut out 2-inch rounds, placing them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Reroll scraps and cut again. Let rise in a warm place 30 minutes.
• In a heavy pot, heat 3 inches of oil to 365 degrees; when hot enough, a small piece of dough will brown on bottom in 30 seconds. If too hot, doughnuts will brown outside before cooking through. Working in batches, fry doughnuts until golden brown, turning once. Drain on paper towels and dust with sugar while still warm. Let oil come back to 365 degrees between batches.
• If you have a pastry bag, fit with a small round tip and spoon jam into bag. When doughnuts are cool enough to handle, use tip of bag (or pointed tip of a serrated knife) to make a hole in bottom of doughnut. Squeeze or use a small spoon to nudge 1/2 teaspoon jam into hole. Repeat with remaining doughnuts and serve immediately. Dust again with powdered sugar.
