Curd donuts are very easy and quick to knead. The plastic dough that is obtained makes it easy to hide any filling. It can be all kinds of dried fruits, nuts and candied fruits.

Donuts and cottage cheese: classic recipe

The shape they can be in the form of balls or bagels. They can also be shaped into a bagel or any other shape you like.

Doughnuts with cottage cheese (photos of some ingredients are given below) do not cost much:

half a kilo of cottage cheese;

• four chicken eggs;
• half a glass of sugar;

• one tablespoon of sour cream;
• half a bag of baking powder (if not, you can extinguish a pinch of soda with vinegar);
• a packet of vanilla sugar;
• powdered sugar will be needed to sprinkle finished donuts;
• vegetable oil is needed for frying;
• 800 grams of wheat flour.

Start cooking

In this case, ordinary store-bought cottage cheese of medium fat content is suitable. At the first stage, grind it with eggs, regular and vanilla sugar. After mixing all the ingredients, add baking powder or soda slaked with vinegar to them.

Now add the flour. It must be sifted so that it can saturate the dough with oxygen. Otherwise, it may turn out to be clogged, and then the donuts will not be elastic, but tight. Add flour gradually as you knead. The dough should be moderately tight and moderately soft so that it can form well, but at the same time not stick to your hands.

After the dough is well kneaded, spread it on a surface sprinkled with flour. Lightly sprinkle on top, too, so that in the process it does not stick to your hands. We roll out a layer with a thickness of five to seven millimeters.

Now let's start forming donuts. We should get them in the form of a donut. To do this, take a two-hundred-gram glass and a glass.

Squeeze larger circles out of the dough with a glass. And already in the middle of each circle we make a smaller circle with the help of a glass - these will be our holes.

Next, we prepare a container in which donuts will be fried. Better to do it indeep fryer, but in the absence of it, we can get by with a small saucepan. Pour at least three centimeters of vegetable oil into it and heat it well. Then, using a slotted spoon, lower the donuts and fry them on both sides.

Since the product fried in oil from cottage cheese is quite fatty, it is better to spread them (after you take them out of the deep-fryer) on a paper napkin. The oil will drain in this way and everything will remain on paper. Then transfer them to a plate and sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Donuts with raspberry filling

Now let's take a look at the preparation of round donuts with raspberry filling.

This recipe is perfect if you want something sweet for tea, but there is no time to cook cakes or pies.

You will need the following ingredients to make fried cottage cheese donuts with raspberry filling:

• one chicken egg;
• two hundred grams of cottage cheese with a fat content of nine percent;
• four tablespoons of sugar (if you have a sweet tooth, you can take more);
• half a teaspoon of baking powder or the same amount of slaked soda with vinegar;
• one glass of flour, but you can add if necessary (it all depends on what kind of dough you get, it should not be liquid);
• vanilla sugar;
• raspberry jam or fresh raspberries (depending on what time of year you cook);
• vegetable oil for frying, it is best to use refined oil, but if you are deep-frying, it is better to take a special one.

Step by step recipe for donuts fromcottage cheese with photo

Instead of raspberries, you can use any berry.

Beat the eggs well with a whisk (you can use a mixer) until foam forms. Then gradually introduce sugar and beat until an air mass is formed.

Add cottage cheese to the container with the egg-sugar mixture, rub everything again until a homogeneous mass is formed. Rub with a fork.

Next, you need to mix the flour with the baking powder and sift it directly into the dough. When using vinegar-slaked soda, the flour must first be sifted, then mix all the ingredients and only then add to the curd mass.

Sprinkle vanilla sugar, which will give the dough a light flavor.

When all the ingredients are combined and mixed, start kneading the dough with your hands. It should turn out plastic and soft. It is allowed that it is slightly sticky, but at the same time it separates well enough from the hands. If it is very liquid, then you can add flour, but make sure that the dough is not very dense. In this case, the donuts will turn out not soft, but hard.

After the dough is kneaded, roll out small cakes of approximately the same size from it.

Spread raspberry jam in the middle with a teaspoon. If you use fresh berries, then add sugar to the filling. Carefully close the dough and roll into a ball with your hands. So that the dough does notstuck to the skin, we grease our hands with vegetable oil.

Starting to prepare deep fat. Pour more than one glass of oil into the pan and put it on fire. We heat the oil, and lower our curd balls. You can send several pieces to the pan at a time. At the same time, they must be constantly stirred so that they brown evenly.

We take out the donuts with a slotted spoon, put them on a napkin so that the oil is glassed from them. After we send it to the dish in which we will serve dessert. While the donuts are hot, you can sprinkle them with powdered sugar through a sieve or pour over melted chocolate.

Now it's time to enjoy the airy dessert with raspberry filling.

American milk donuts

This dessert is very popular in America. There they eat them in kilograms and, perhaps, there is no such hostess who would not know how to cook them. But you should take into account the fact that they are very high in calories, so eating them every day is undesirable.

Calculation of ingredients for 40 donuts:

• half a liter of warm milk;
• one and a half tablespoons of yeast;
• four tablespoons of sugar;
• half a teaspoon of s alt;
• fifty grams of softened butter;
• three egg yolks;
• two hundred grams of fat cottage cheese;
• a few grams of vanilla sugar (one pack);
• four cups of flour;

Ingredients for making glaze:

• a glass of powdered sugar;
• half a glass of milk.

Let's get startedcooking

Knead yeast dough. It will not be difficult to do this, of course, if there is a bread machine. It is enough to mix all the ingredients and wait until it is ready. If you do not have a bread machine, then you need to make a dough in milk. Then add sugar, flour, a little s alt to it. The consistency of the dough should resemble sour cream. Leave it for half an hour in a warm place.

After that, add the rest of the ingredients one by one, then start kneading the dough.

Roll it out (on a floured surface) no more than three millimeters thick. With the help of a glass and a glass, we begin to cut out donuts. After that, we leave our dough bagels for an hour under a covered towel.

Start cooking deep fat. Heat the oil until it starts to sizzle and drop the donuts into it. Fry them on all sides until cooked. We take it out, leave it on a paper towel.

Cooking frosting

Heat the milk so that it is warm, do not bring to a boil. We heat on a slow fire. Gradually add powdered sugar, stir until a viscous mass is formed.

It should be enough to allow donuts to drop.

As soon as the mass becomes viscous, we lower the donut into it, but only on one side. We put it on a plate and let the glaze harden. After that, American donuts are ready to eat.

Step 3. After that, combine both masses and mix well.

Step 4. Sift the flour and gradually add to the already grated mass. The kneading process begins.

Step 5. Let's start forming balls. Roll out the dough with a sausage, cut into equal pieces. We, in turn, roll them out in such a way that the filling can be placed. We close the dough and form balls with our hands.

Step 6. We heat the oil on the stove and begin to lower our donuts into it. Fry on all sides and spread on paper to drain.

Start making glaze

You can do this with twoways.

If you decide to make it from milk chocolate, then you need to prepare a water bath in which we will melt it. After that, pour chocolate over each donut and wait until it cools.

In the second case, it is necessary to heat the milk, dissolve cocoa in it and cook until a thick mass is formed. Without turning off the fire, lower the donuts into the pan. We are waiting for the glaze to harden.
