Yogurt Sweet Fritters
Mmm, these sweet little fritters are absolutely addictive. This recipe brings up so many childhood memories. It has been in our family for generations. However, my mom and grandma used to make yeasted sweet fritters too. These are completely yeast-free and made with probiotic yogurt, so they are light and fluffy as a cloud. They are traditionally eaten for Mardi Gras or Pust as we call it. We call these bite-sized fritters “Miške” in Slovenia, which would directly translate to mice since they are so small and cute. Making them is super easy and you definitely don't need to be an expert to master this recipe.

METHOD

  • make the batter

    In a bowl, stir to combine probiotic yogurt, eggs, sugar, vanilla sugar, baking powder, and lemon zest. Add all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt and mix well using a whisk to get a smooth batter. Set aside for 10 minutes.

    Place a small pot or saucepan with oil over medium-high heat. When the temperature of the oil reaches 170°C or 340 °F, start frying. Carefully drop a teaspoon of the batter into the hot oil. Repeat the process, but don't overcrowd the pan; work in batches. Fry for about 4 - 6 minutes or until the fritters are golden brown. Shake the pan from time to time.

  • serve

    Transfer the sweet fritters to a plate lined with paper towels, then serve sprinkled with icing sugar.
