- When the dough no longer sticks to your hands, form a ball and cover it with plastic wrap, leave it for 1 hour to rest and double in size.
- After the resting time, cover the work table with flour, put the dough there and spread it with the help of the rolling pin, when it is very thin, cut the donuts to the size of preference.
- After covering them and letting them rest for another half hour, they should be left in a warm place.
- Next, the donuts must be cooked, for this there are two options.
