Ingredients:

• apple — 1 piece;
• egg — 1;
• sugar — 3 tbsp;
• vanilla sugar — 1 packet (optional);
• oil — 3 tbsp;
• salt — a pinch;
• plain yogurt — 200 g;
• milk — 50 ml;
• flour — approximately 350 g;
• baking powder — 7 g;
• oil — for frying;

For topping:

• sugar;
• cinnamon.

Instructions:

In a deep bowl, whisk the egg with sugar and vanilla sugar until light and frothy. Add oil, a pinch of salt, yogurt, and milk, then mix with a whisk until smooth.

Peel the apple and grate it on a coarse grater or cut into small cubes. Add to the wet mixture and stir. Gradually add the flour mixed with baking powder, kneading a soft, elastic dough that doesn’t stick to your hands. Heat a generous amount of oil in a deep skillet. With damp hands, shape small elongated donuts from the dough. Fry on both sides until golden brown.

Place the finished donuts on a paper towel to remove excess oil, then roll them in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Serve warm — they are soft, aromatic, with a delicate apple flavor and a crispy crust.
