Somebody said I have to try feta eggs. I did and they are actually pretty tasty.View attachment 5295546View attachment 5295547View attachment 5295548

It may sound weird, but next time try the feta eggs with some diced up green olives stuffed with garlic and pimento. Delicious.

Green olives with Greek feta. That's sacrilegious!

are you placeing them on a mesh that go's into the fat at the samew time as dognuts, its real easy to knock them and they go flat n heavy. so carefull handeling is required. enjoy

I have a basket for the fryer but I think I'll cook the holes with it. The donuts will be free floating and I'll turn them with a screen scoop we used for stir fry. They'll get set on a cooling rack before being dusted with cinnamon sugar.

The machine is getting a rise out of the dough now. Takes 1:05 hrs to run the cycle.

Anyone have an idea on how to get excess dough to stick back together after cutting out biscuits or donuts? The bench flour kind of makes it un sticky. I was thinking adding water and kneading it might work...?

Just knead it back together, you shouldn’t need to add extra water, but if it’s really refusing to stick, you could always try it.

I think the last one will still be edible if it self destructs...lol.

OK, first observation, the cutter needs to be used on both sides or the holes won't come out.


Second observation, the holes are a PITA to get to roll over in the fryer. I cooked them a little long to make sure they were done, they cook fast. I'll go for golden next time.



I'll try one in a couple, my back says it is time to sit for awhile.
Seed starter pad worked fine to proof them, lol.

I've always wanted to try making donuts. Great job! I think I may try apple fritters some day.

 

[raratt]

They taste like donuts. They are a little tough, probably overcooked them a bit. I may have shorted them a bit on yeast also, the recipe called for 2.5 tsp and the package said it has 2.25 tsp approx. I'll measure it next time, yeast is cheap. Finding a better way to proof the dough after cutting might help also. Might need to cover them to keep more heat in or set the pad on top of another cookie sheet. Definitely edible though.

apple fritters

My thoughts exactly, I plan on looking up a recipe next. Not sure how it will work in the machine though.

Chef John's Apple Fritters

Chef John cooks the apples first for more flavor and a softer texture, and he uses sparkling apple cider for a lighter-tasting apple fritter.

I was contemplating using apple pie filler, might be cooked too much though.

Thanks for the recipe. The sparkling cider in the glaze seems like a nice addition.

Dinner from a couple nights ago. Stubbs sauced pair of thighs, the rest is obvious



Cut up a brat and put it in my scrambled eggs for breakfast, a little heat from the rub worked well.
