Lightly oil your hands and the mixing bowl. Shape the dough into a ball and place it in the greased bowl.

Shape The Donuts

Roll each piece into a long rope (about 10 inches long), then twist it into a spiral shape.

Second Rise

Place the twisted donuts on a floured tray or parchment paper and cover them with a towel.

Frying

Fry until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Coating

 While still warm, roll the donuts in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon to coat evenly.
