- 4. Turn the soft dough onto a clean, well floured surface and begin kneading for about 10 minute adding up to 2 cups of flour until a soft, pliable dough forms and is easily rubbed from the hands. Continue kneading -- using less flour will keep the dough light.

- 6. Punch down the dough, shape as desired and allow to rise for 20-30 minutes. While rising, heat oil in deep fryer or dutch oven. Fry each doughnut about 1 minute per side (depending on the desired color) and remove from oil and drain. Gloze / Coat as desired or fill with cream or jelly.
