Ingredients

• DOUGH:
• 2 teaspoons instant yeast
• 3/4 cup water, lukewarm
• 1/2 cup whole milk, lukewarm
• 1 tablespoon white sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
• vegetable oil for frying
• GLAZE:
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, browned
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons maple syrup
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar

Method

1. Whisk the yeast into the lukewarm water and milk in a large bowl, then add the sugar, flour and salt.
2. Knead with a stand mixer hook until the dough comes together, then knead 1 minute more until soft and elastic.
3. Put the dough in a butter-oiled bowl, cover it and leave it in a warm place for about an hour until doubled.
4. Brown the butter in a pan over medium heat for 5 to 6 minutes until it bubbles and turns brown, then pour it into a bowl and stir in the vanilla, maple syrup and powdered sugar until smooth.
5. Divide the risen dough into 6 to 7 pieces, roll them into balls with oiled hands and flatten each into a long, fairly thin oval.
6. Heat 1 inch of vegetable oil in a frying pan to 350°F and fry the ovals one or two at a time until golden and bubbly on both sides.
7. Drain the fried dough on a wire rack, brush the maple glaze over the tops and serve warm, with an extra dusting of powdered sugar if you like.
