Cottage cheese doughnuts
Description
Delicious pastry for the whole family. Finished cottage cheese doughnuts “Peaches” should be about the size of a real fruit. Therefore, the dough portions should weigh 50–70 grams. During frying, the doughnuts increase in volume. Make sure in advance to have a spacious frying pot. It is also important to maintain moderate heat. This affects the doneness of the cottage cheese doughnuts. If you are unsure whether they are done, take a long wooden skewer and pierce a doughnut. The skewer should come out completely dry, without any wet dough. Taking these nuances into account and following the recipe, the cottage cheese doughnuts “Peaches” will delight you with their taste. They can be served with tea or coffee.
