Ingredients

1/2 cup warm water

1 teaspoon active dry yeast

2 tablespoons granulated sugar

1/4 cup vegetable oil

1 large egg, lightly beaten

3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting

1 teaspoon salt

Vegetable oil, for frying

1/2 cup granulated sugar, for coating

Directions

Combine granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl, then stir in melted butter, vanilla, egg yolks, and Greek yogurt. When well combined, sift in flour and stir to form a soft dough, no more than 30 seconds. Turn onto a lightly floured work surface and knead until easy to handle. Dusting with as much flour as needed, roll to 3/8 inch thick. Brush off excess flour with a damp pastry brush and cut into 1 3/4–inch rounds. Arrange upside down on a paper towel–lined baking sheet, then brush away excess flour. Gather scraps, briefly knead, and repeat as before.
