This morning, Lonnie had a hankering for doughnuts. He found this recipe online, in all its dairy-free goodness. It is originally from Guam. He tried it. Delish! They are going to be gone by tonight because I can't stop eating them....
Bonelos Manglo
2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 2 tablespoons sugar 3/4 cup coconut milk (canned can be sweetened)
1. Mix ingredients until it comes together to form dough. 2. Roll on a board with a rolling pin until 1/3 inch thick then cut into long strips about a half inch apart, then cutting it into diamonds. 3. Preheat oil in deep frying pan then place diamond shape dough into it, turning occasionally until dough is golden brown. 4. Remove, let cool on brown paper bags or paper towels. 5. When cool dust with powdered sugar or regular granulated sugar.
Notes: Lonnie used self-rising flour and just a pinch of baking powder, instead of regular flour and the full amount of baking powder, because we have it on hand and are trying to use it up. He used canned coconut milk, and did not add any extra sugar, though the dough could have been a little sweeter, maybe. But, since we doused them in a good layer of cinnamon sugar at the end, we didn't really notice! He also didn't cut them into diamonds, like it mentions above, but used a biscuit cutter to make round ones (without holes). Shape, to me, does not a doughnut make.
