\n– Eggs: 3
\n– Flour: 300 grams
\n– Baking soda: 7 pinches

1. Start by preparing the syrup. Combine the sugar, water, and lemon juice in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and let simmer for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.<\/p>\n
2. In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and yogurt together. Gradually add the flour and baking soda, mixing with a wooden spoon until well combined.<\/p>\n
3. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan. Also, set aside some room-temperature oil in a separate dish.<\/p>\n
4. First, dip a spoon into the room-temperature oil to coat it. This will help in easily sliding the batter off the spoon. With the oiled spoon, scoop a small portion of the batter and gently drop it into the hot oil. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes until golden.<\/p>\n
5. Remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Then, immerse them in the prepared syrup for about 3 to 4 minutes to soak.<\/p>\n
Arrange the soaked doughnuts on a serving plate. Drizzle with the remaining syrup and serve warm.<\/p>\n
These yogurt doughnuts are not only a breeze to whip up but also a delightful indulgence to enjoy with friends and family during festive celebrations or a cozy weekend treat.<\/p>\n\n\n
