Beaver Tails
Serves 8
Prep Time: 105 minutes
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp. butter, melted
- 1 tbsp. cinnamon, ground
- 1 egg
- 2½ cups flour, all-purpose
- 1/2 cup milk, warm
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 tsp. sugar
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla
- 1 L vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup water, warm
- 2½ tsp. active yeast, instant
Directions
In a small bowl, combine water, milk, yeast, and sugar. Let it sit for about 10 minutes or until frothy.
In another bowl, pour in the flour and make a well in the middle. Pour in butter, sugar, salt, vanilla and egg. Mix everything together until the dough is smooth. Knead for about 5 minutes and set the dough in a greased bowl. Cover with a towel and set aside for about an hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.
After one hour, turn on your and preheat to 450°F. Pour 1 L of vegetable oil into a cast iron pan and place on the grates of your Grill. Keep your flame broiler closed so as to prevent grease flareups. Preheat the oil so that it is 350°F.
While you''re waiting for the oil to heat up, punch down the dough and separate into 8 small balls. Shape each piece of dough into a flat circle. Fry the dough in the preheated oil for about 1 minute per side, or until the dough is golden brown.
Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar immediately, or top with your desired toppings. Enjoy!
