In a bowl, combine the warm yeast with a bit of sugar and let it activate.

In a separate bowl, mix the warm milk, egg yolks, melted butter, vanilla sugar, alcohol or lemon juice, and oil.

Combine the wet ingredients with the activated yeast mixture.

Gradually add the flour and salt, kneading the dough until it is fluffy, elastic, and not sticky.

Let the dough rise until it has doubled in size.

Once risen, shape the dough into balls and let them rest again.

Heat the frying oil to the appropriate temperature.

Fry the dough balls until golden brown on all sides.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.

Once cooled, inject the jam into the pączki using a syringe or piping bag.

Dust with powdered sugar or glaze with powdered sugar mixed with lemon juice.
