Flaxseed meal is a vegan alternative that binds well.

Mash 250 g cottage cheese with a fork until smooth.

Add 3 eggs to the mashed cottage cheese and mix well.

Stir in 70 g sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp baking soda until combined.

Gradually add 2 cups (300 g) all-purpose flour to the mixture and combine until a dough forms.

To make it easier to work with the dough, apply some vegetable oil to your hands and rub it all over.

Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot for frying.

Scoop small amounts of dough and drop them into the hot oil.

Fry the doughnut holes in small batches, constantly moving them around with a large spoon until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove the doughnut holes from the oil and drain on paper towels.

Optionally, glaze the doughnut holes or sprinkle icing sugar on top.
