The Canadian Fried Dough Pastry recipe is really easy to make. The dough is is slightly sweet, thanks to the added vanilla and cinnamon.

Canadian Fried Dough Pastry

water

dry yeast

sugar

milk

salt

vanilla

eggs

all-purpose flour

oil (for frying)

granulated sugar (for dusting)

cinnamon

In a large mixing bowl, stir together the yeast, warm water and pinch of sugar.

Allow to stand a couple of minutes to allow yeast to swell or dissolve.

Stir in remaining sugar, milk, vanilla, eggs, oil, salt, and the flour to make a soft dough.

Knead by hand or with a dough hook for 5 minutes, adding flour as needed to form a firm, smooth, elastic dough.

Place in a greased bowl. Place bowl in a plastic bag and seal. If not using the dough right away, you can refrigerate it.

Let rise in a covered and lightly greased bowl about 30-45 minutes.

Gently deflate dough. If dough is coming out of the fridge, allow to warm up for about 40 minutes before proceeding.

Take a piece of dough the size of a golf ball and roll out into an oval.

Heat about 4 inches of oil in a wok or frying pan. Temperature of the oil should be about 385°F.

Before putting in oil, stretch the ovals into a tail shape, thinning them out and enlarging them, like a beaver’s tail.

Add 1-2 dough pieces at a time to the hot oil.

Turn once to fry until the undersides are dark brown.

Lift the tails out with tongs and drain on paper towels.

Fill a large flat bowl with a 2 cups of white sugar.

Put the tails in sugar with a little cinnamon and shake off excess.

You can add jam, Nutella or a few drops of lemon juice!

5 Minute Air Fried Honey Cinnamon Tortilla Chips are the best treat! Drizzled with warm honey and cinnamon gives a candied taste and a delicious crunch!

Air Fried Honey Tortilla Chips

white flour tortilla wraps, (large or small)

honey

cinnamon, (divided)

⁣cooking oil spray⁣

Mix honey and one and a half teaspoons of cinnamon until well incorporated.

Spray both sides of the tortilla with cooking oil spray (I used avocado oil spray).

Sprinkle a little cinnamon on one side of the tortilla, then spread about a tablespoon of the honey mixture on the other side covering it all, using a spoon or brush. ⁣⁣⁣

Using a pizza cutter, cut the tortilla into large triangles.

Place in an oil sprayed air fryer basket for 3-5 minute at 350F. Place the tortilla in a plate then drizzle the remaining melted honey inside the air fryer on top of the crispy tortilla. Enjoy warm or when cooled.

Sooo crispy and delicious and they don't take time. Loved them

I would give these Air Fried Honey Tortilla Chips 6 stars if i could! They are sooo yummy

So so good and easy to make!! Recommended to my friends. Love your recipes

Elephant Ears

Tbsp sugar

unsalted butter

tsp pure vanilla extract

(1/4 oz each) packets rapid rise yeast

all purpose flour

Tbsp cinnamon

vegetable oil, peanut oil or canola oil

Dough: In a small saucepan, combine milk, salt, butter and 2 tablespoons of sugar on medium heat. Heat while stirring until butter melts and sugar dissolves. Remove from heat, Let cool until warm, about 110°F. Sprinkle yeast on top and let sit for 10 minutes until mixture is foamy and yeast has bloomed.

Pour mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook. Add vanilla. Mix on low gradually adding the flour until a dough forms. Once all is added, increase the speed and knead for 5 minutes, or until smooth and dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl. (Alternately, knead by hand on a lightly floured non-stick surface.)

Cover bowl with a damp cloth and let rise 45-60 minutes or until it has doubled in size. Combine cinnamon and reserved 6 Tbsp of sugar, set aside.

Fry: In a large pot or 12-inch deep skillet, heat 2-3 inches of vegetable oil to 360-365°F. Keep roughly in this range.

Pinch or slice balls of dough about the size of an egg. Roll out into thin sheets. Drop into oil and fry for 1-2 minutes per side or just until puffed and golden. (It may take less time depending on the oil temp and thickness)

Drain on paper towels and immediately sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Serve and enjoy. (You can also  brush them with melted butter if desired, then sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.)

My grandmother would make these with leftover dough when she would make kraut burgers and cinnamon rolls. We call it grebble. Great memory, thank you!

Looks delicious!!! And that’s a cute name! My family came from Mexico and we call these buñuelos.  Absolutely delicious😋😋😋

Yummy says it all . And easy to do.
A great idea, for doing at home now we don’t have to wait for the local fair to come around.
Thank you for sharing

This recipe is awesome thank you for posting it!

Perfect, there's nothing like making these at home!

What’s the difference from Native American Fry bread then this? Or is that just another name or version for similar!!

Classic Palmiers cookies are a traditional French pastry that is made with buttery puff pastry and granulated sugar--that&#39;s it! The sugar caramelizes on the puff pastry for a sweet crunch to the airy cookie, and it takes just 30 minutes!

Palmiers Cookies (Elephant Ears)

lb puff pastry

fine sea salt

Parchment paper to line the cookie sheet.

Mix - Preheat the oven to 450°F with a rack in the center. Mix sugar and salt together. Pour 1/2 cup of sugar mixture on a clean, flat surface, such as a large wooden cutting board.

Roll - Unfold one Puff pastry sheet onto the sugared surface and spread 1/4 cup sugar over the top. With a rolling pin, roll the pastry sheet to about a 13&quot; square, pressing the sugar into the dough.

Fold 2 opposite sides into the center. Fold again and close like a book (you should have 8 layers total).

Cut the pastry log into just under 1/2&quot; pieces and arrange on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Repeat with the second puff pastry sheet.

Bake for 6-8 minutes* until the bottoms of the cookies are golden brown and caramelized (this can be hard to see, so check at 6 minutes). Flip the cookies over, reshape as needed and return to the oven for another 4 to 5 minutes until golden brown on the other side. Remove from the baking sheet to cool.

Hi Natasha, I just made a batch of these and had to have three of them after the first bite.  I always loved palmiers but never attempted to make them myself.  That's in the past now! 
 They are that good.  I now will be making these often as a fancy for afternoon tea, actually anytime I fancy anything sweet.   Thank you!

I made these again using half white sugar and half turbinado sugar. The turbinado sugar melted to make them crisper and more caramelized. Just another option to try. However you make them, they are delicious.

These cookies seem so very easy and quick. A wonderful treat to have available for the holidaysl. Thank you Natasha for sharing.

These are some of the BEST and easiest pastries I’ve ever made. Shortbread cookies used to be my favorite. These have replaced them. Sooo good

Every recipe is fully explained and made it so easy to follow . Really good and make my festive season very festive. Thank you my dear Natasha

Will try it tonight but can this be baked in air fryer?
