Instructions
1: In the bowl of an electric mixer, add eggs. Using the flat beater, turn on the mixer on the lowest speed. 2: Add sugar. Then add oil, water, orange blossom, salt, and vanilla. 3: Turn off mixer. Add zest and baking powder. Mix until everything is incorporated. 4: Add flour, 1 cup at a time while mixer is on. Mix for 2 minutes. Your dough should be sticky but firm. 5: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead using a few sprinkles of flour to help create a slightly sticky dough that is relatively easy to work with. 6: Divide dough into 4. Form logs, then divide again into about 8-9 pieces. Roll out each piece to form circles and set aside. 7: Heat a pot of about 2.5-3 inches of oil to 350°F. Fry each donut for about 2-3 minutes on one side and another 1-2 minutes on the other. Cool on a cooling rack. They should be slightly golden.View original recipe
