Ingredients

Also:

some cinnamon powder, possibly
some sour cherries, possibly
Sunflower oil or rapeseed oil for frying

Instructions

Mix the flour, dry yeast, salt and sugar together. Make the egg and milk lukewarm and mix with the ingredients to form a fairly runny batter. Beat the dough with the hand mixer until it bubbles. Let the dough rise until it doubles in volume.
Then bake 2 tablespoons of batter in hot sunflower or rapeseed oil, almost floating in the pan, for 10 - 12 minutes. Sprinkle with sugar before serving. The amount makes about 16 cakes.
If you like, you can also squeeze sour cherries into the dough when baking and instead of using just plain granulated sugar, you can also mix the sugar with cinnamon.
