Add the yeast mixture to the flour mixture and combine until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth.

Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.

Divide the dough into small balls and flatten each into a round disc.

Fry the discs in the hot oil until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Brush with melted butter and sprinkle with spices and nuts if desired.

Serve warm with syrup or honey.
