Preparation method

How do you make this?

Mix the yeast into the milk. Put the flour, vanilla sugar, and salt in a large bowl and mix well together. Separate the eggs, beat the yolks into the milk. Pour into the flour and keep stirring in the middle with a whisk to gradually mix more flour into the mixture; you will have a thick, firm mass, so keep whisking to mix out all the lumps.

Whip the egg whites with the sugar until stiff and fold into the mixture in 2 batches. Let rise for 1 hour.

Heat your deep fryer to 180°C and remove the basket. Scoop about 5 spoonfuls of dough into your pot, let them color, turn them over, and color the other side as well. Carefully turn all the oliebollen so they become nicely golden brown all around. Continue to fry the dough.

Dust with powdered sugar, serve immediately.
