also called Quarkkrapfen, originally a Swiss carnival speciality, but today they are available all year round

Roll out the puff pastry to a thickness of about 2 mm and cut out 10 cm squares. Mix the cinnamon, cinnamon, raisins, almonds, lemon zest, and sugar until moist but not runny (if it seems too dry, stir in a little cream). Place 1 tablespoon of filling on each square of dough, brush the edges with a little water, and fold the dough diagonally to form triangular doughnuts. Press the edges firmly. Heat the oil to 170 °C (350 °F) and fry the doughnuts in batches until golden brown. Mix the cinnamon and sugar together and toss the hot doughnuts in the mixture. This amount makes about 15 doughnuts.
