Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/2 inch thick.

Cut into rounds using a donut cutter or two different-sized circles.

Let the cut donuts rest for 15-20 minutes to rise slightly.

Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F.

Fry donuts in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Remove and drain on paper towels.

Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
