Directions

  1. In a bowl, mix the yogurt, egg, sugar, vanilla, and oil until well combined. Gradually add the flour and instant baking yeast. Mix thoroughly to form a smooth dough.

  2. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for about 5 minutes. In the meantime, peel and slice the apple into thin pieces.

  3. Roll out the dough into a flat circle. Arrange the apple slices in rows on the dough, sprinkling sugar lightly over the top.

  4. Roll the dough into a log, encasing the apple slices, and slice it into individual rounds.

  5. Heat oil in a pan for deep frying. Fry the dough rounds in hot oil until golden brown. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  6. Sprinkle the warm doughnuts with a mix of sugar and cinnamon before serving.
