Donuts, or doughnuts, are round patties fried in a lot of butter with a hole in the center. Usually, they are sprinkled with powdered sugar before serving. Those crumpets that have not yet had time to cool down are tastier - these are often sold in street stalls in many Russian cities.

The most difficult thing in making crumpets is to find the most successful dough for them. In principle, any yeast is suitable. But if you want a little less calories, you can stop at yeast-free kefir.
The doughnut dough should ideally be smooth, elastic, easily holding its shape, but by no means steep. Otherwise, the baking will turn out to be rough and not too tasty. It is rolled out with a rolling pin into a layer 1 cm thick or less. Then, using two glasses, a large one and a smaller one, mugs with holes are cut out. They are fried in boiling oil in such a way that the crumpet is completely immersed in it. Spread on a paper towel to remove excess fat. While still warm, sprinkle with powdered sugar. And they are served hot with tea or coffee.
Why are they hot? The fact is that after cooling, the crumpets are slightly deformed. The dough kind of "squats". Although in any case, you can eat them in this form.
