You're making cute little cottage cheese doughnuts that come out wonderfully homey and imperfect — not the classic donut shop kind, but charming dumplings instead. The dough comes together quickly, gets shaped with two spoons and shallow-fried until golden, then rolled in vanilla sugar while hot. The best part is finishing them your way: with the raspberry sauce, whipped cream, jam, or whatever toppings call to you.

Stir the baking powder into the flour. Put all the ingredients in a bowl, but hold off on the water for now — add it later as needed.

A slightly sticky dough
Stir the dough together with a wooden spoon. It should hold together and feel a bit sticky — that's totally fine!

Shape the doughnuts and fry
Get a large frying pan ready and pour in the oil — just a shallow layer is enough. Take two tablespoons: use one to scoop up the dough and the other to help shape it into a doughnut, then drop it into the hot oil.
