Ingredients

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and orange zest. Mix well to ensure all the dry ingredients are evenly distributed.

  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the orange juice, melted butter, and egg until well combined.

  3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into the well. Gently mix everything together until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.

  4. Lightly flour a clean surface and turn out the dough onto it. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

  5. Roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. You can use a donut cutter to cut out the shapes, or simply use a round cookie cutter and a smaller one for the center.

  6. Heat oil in a deep frying pan or Dutch oven to around 350°F (175°C). Fry the donuts in batches, turning them once, until they are golden brown on both sides.

  7. Remove the donuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off excess oil.

  8. Allow the donuts to cool slightly. While still warm, toss them in powdered sugar until they are completely coated. The sugar will stick to the warm donuts, creating a delightful sweet coating.

  9. Serve the Rosquillas De Naranja Orange Donuts warm and fresh for the best taste and texture. Enjoy them with a cup of your favorite hot beverage or as a sweet treat on their own.
