Sourdough starter adds probiotics and flavor.

milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil is dairy-free and adds a subtle flavor.

Mix flour, instant yeast, sugar, and salt in a large bowl.

Add warm milk and canola oil, then mix until combined.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, adding more flour as needed.

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

Punch down the risen dough and divide it into equal pieces.

Shape each piece into a ball and let them rest for 15 minutes.

Heat oil in a deep pot over medium heat until hot.

Fry the dough balls in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
