Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the gluten-free all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk and melted unsalted butter. Whisk together until fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix until the batter is smooth and no dry lumps remain.
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese into the batter gently until evenly distributed.
In a large pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding.
Fry the donuts for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts from the oil and transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve the cheese donuts warm as a savory treat or appetizer.
