Recipe Note
Note:
Don’t over-mix the batter as it may make the friers tough. Don’t overcrowd the pan when frying so the donuts cook beer and the oil temperature is easier to maintain. Try to maintain a constant temperature of 375° F. Use a candy thermometer to track the temperature of the oil. A dutch oven or heavy pot helps the oil hold its temperature. When you add the batter the temperature wi drop so you must increase the heat a tad. Likewise, when you remove the friers from the oil the temperature will increase so you need to turn the heat down a tad. Remove the fried fritters to paper towels to drain. Store the cooled cooked friers wrapped loosely in paper towels in a brown paper bag.
