Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon Salt
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 2 whole Large eggs
  • 0.5 cup Whole milk
  • 2 cups Vegetable oil
  • 0.5 cup Powdered sugar

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt.

Step 2

Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use your fingers or a pastry cutter to blend the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles fine crumbs.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the whole milk. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the flour mixture and stir until a soft dough forms.

Step 5

Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15 minutes.

Step 7

Roll out the dough to about 1/8-inch thickness and cut it into desired shapes using a pastry cutter or a knife.

Step 8

Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C).

Step 9

Carefully fry the dough pieces in batches, turning them occasionally, until they are golden brown, approximately 2 to 3 minutes.

Step 10

Remove the fried pastries from the oil using a slotted spoon and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.

Step 11

While the pastries are still warm, sift powdered sugar over them for a sweet finish.

Step 12

Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your nut-free classic fried pastries!
