Ingredients
- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 2 tsp Instant Yeast
- 1/4 tsp Nutmeg
- 1 cup Warm Water
- 2 cups Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- 1In a large bowl, measure and combine 2 cups of All-Purpose Flour, 1/4 cup of Granulated Sugar, 2 tsp of Instant Yeast, and 1/4 tsp of Nutmeg.
- 2Gradually add 1 cup of Warm Water to the dry ingredients while mixing until you have a smooth batter. The batter should be thick but pourable.
- 3Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and place it in a warm, draft-free spot for 1 hour. The batter should increase in volume and roughly double in size.
- 4Pour 2 cups of Vegetable Oil into a large, heavy-bottomed pot or deep frying pan. Heat the oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 5Carefully spoon small portions of the batter into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pot; fry in batches. Fry for about 3-5 minutes per side, turning occasionally, until the puff puff are golden brown and puffed up.
- 6Using a slotted spoon, remove the puff puff from the hot oil. Place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- 7Serve the puff puff warm.
