Orange-Glazed Crullers
Total Time Prep: 35 min. + rising Cook: 20 min. Makes 3 dozen Ingredients 1 package (1/4 ounce) active dry yeast 1/4 cup warm water (110° to 115°) 3/4 cup warm 2% milk (110° to 115°) 1/2 cup butter, softened 2 large eggs, room temperature, lightly beaten 1/4 cup sugar 1 teaspoon salt 4 to 4-1/4 cups all-purpose flour Oil for deep-fat frying glaze: 2 cups confectioners' sugar 3 tablespoons orange juice 1 teaspoon grated orange zest Directions In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in water. Beat in milk, butter, eggs, sugar, salt and 2 cups of flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough. Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, 6-8 minutes. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease the top. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour. Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide into 36 portions. Roll each into a 12-in. rope. Fold each rope in half lengthwise and twist several times. Pinch ends to seal. Place on greased baking sheets. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, 15-25 minutes. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 350°. Fry crullers, in batches, until golden brown, about 1 minute on each side. Drain on paper towels. In a small bowl, combine glaze ingredients; brush over warm crullers. link
