Kräppele
Mix the yeast in lukewarm milk. Knead this with the sifted flour, sugar, butter, vanilla sugar, grated almonds or lemon zest, a pinch of salt, and the eggs until a smooth dough forms. Cover the dough in the bowl and let it rise in a warm place for 90 minutes, away from drafts. Knead again. Cut about 20 equal-sized pieces of dough into balls. Make a hole with your thumb and fill with jam or marmalade (don’t overdo it!). Seal the dough tightly over the filling. Place on a floured board or baking sheet and let it rise for another 10 to 20 minutes. Heat the oil to approximately 180°C and fry the doughnuts in batches, turning occasionally. Remove with a slotted spoon, let them drain, and coat in granulated sugar. This makes about 20 doughnuts.
