1

Place flour in the bowl of electric mixer.

Make a well in the center and add all remaining ingredients.

3

Knead for 5 minutes.

4

Lightly grease a large bowl.

5

Place dough into the bowl, spray with oil on top and cover with plastic wrap.

6

Let dough rise for 1 hour or in fridge for 8 hours or overnight.

7

If rising in the refrigerator, allow the dough to come back to room temperature before using.

8

Divide dough into 3 parts.

9

On a lightly floured Silpat or silicone mat, roll 1 piece of dough into a 10”x15” rectangle.

10

Stir together cinnamon and sugar.

11

Smear dough lightly with oil.

12

Sprinkle cinnamon-sugar mixture over dough, leaving 1” unfilled at the long edge to help the roll seal.

13

Starting at the long edge with the filling, roll dough jelly-roll-style ending at the unfilled edge.

14

Cut into 1” slices, yielding 15 buns.

15

Secure each bun with a toothpick. Set aside.

Repeat with remaining dough.

17

Heat oil in a large pot to 350°F on a deep fry thermometer.

Prepare a cooling rack over a sheet pan lined with paper towels to drain the buns.

19

When oil is at correct temperature, gently place 4 to 5 buns into the hot oil.

Fry for about 90 seconds until golden.

21

Flip to fry on other side.

Using a spider strainer (see image), remove donut from hot oil.

Let donuts cool at least 15 minutes before glazing.
