Gluten-Free Doughnut Holes ( Gluten-Free Doughnuts) image

A Bette Hagman Recipe- a delicious treat. I had thought that doughnuts were on the forever-gone list until I tried these little morsels :) Best served hot, but still OK cold. They can be frozen, defrosted and reheated in the oven

Time 1h

Yield 30 doughnut holes, 6-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup water
1/2 cup butter (1 stick of butter) or 1/2 cup margarine (1 stick of butter)
1 cup potato starch
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 eggs
oil (for deep frying)
cinnamon sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a deep fryer (375°F ). You will need at least one -two inches deep of oil. Whilst the oil is heating, prepare the doughnut recipe. Do not leave the heating oil unattended.
  • Using a saucepan, heat the water and butter until boiling point is reached. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
  • Dump in the potato starch, sugar and salt. Stir until the mixture forms a ball and has pulled away from the sides of the saucepan. (Much like making a choux pastry).
  • With an electric mixer, add in the eggs -one at a time. Beat well between adding each egg.
  • Drop the batter into the heated oil by small rounded teaspoonfuls, a few at a time. The doughnut holes will puff up as they are cooking to about 1 1/2 inches. Turn them throughout cooking to brown evenly. They'll take approx 5 minutes to cook. Remove from the heat and drain on paper towels.
  • While still warm shake them in a plastic bag with cinnamon sugar (2 tablespoons of sugar to 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon).
