Doughnuts with Orange Sauce

Состав / Ингредиенты:

• Dry yeast 2 Teaspoons
• Warm water 100 Milliliters
• Honey 2 Tablespoons
• Egg whites 3 Pieces
• Flour (not full) 2 Cups
• Salt 1 Pinch
• Butter 50 Grams
• Sugar 1 Tablespoon
• Vegetable oil for frying 1 Piece
• Powdered sugar 1 Piece
• Orange juice (for sauce) 1 Piece
• Honey (for sauce) 100 Grams

	Sift the flour with salt. In a large bowl, place one-third of the flour, add warm water, sugar, and yeast. Mix well, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for 1.5 hours.
	Add the remaining flour to the bowl with the sponge. Add honey, melted butter, and egg whites. Knead the dough and let it rise for another 1 hour.
	Turn the dough out onto a floured surface. Knead for 5-7 minutes. Then pinch off even pieces and roll them into balls about 4.5 cm in diameter. Dust with flour and let rest for 15 minutes.
	Take a ball in both hands. Press down firmly with your thumbs in the center to make a hole. Gently stretch the edges of the ball to shape it into a ring.
	Pour the orange juice into a saucepan. Mix with honey. Set over medium heat and reduce the sauce until its volume is halved.
	Heat vegetable oil in a pot to a high temperature. Fry the doughnuts in batches for 3.5 minutes each. Then transfer them to paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with the orange sauce.
