Recipe Ingredients:
  • 3 cups of unbleached flour (sifted)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups low fat sour cream
  • Canola oil for frying
  • Jelly of your choice
  • Powdered sugar
In a bowl add the flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs and sour cream. Mix until well blended.

Heat the oil, when very hot add 1 tbs. of the mixture to the oil. Fry until doughnuts puff and become light brown, then flip over and cook the other side. Proceed until all doughnuts are cooked. Drain doughnuts on a paper towel.

Poke a small hole into each doughnut and fill with jelly of your choice. Sprinkle the doughnuts with powdered sugar and serve immediately.

Makes 25 doughnuts.

Note: To fill the jelly into the doughnut, you can use a syringe, or you can poke a hole with a skewer (do it slowly) and carefully fill the doughnuts.
