Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup plain yogurt

1/4 cup warm milk

1 egg

1 tbsp melted butter

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)

1/4 cup grated cheese (cheddar or parmesan work great!)

Oil for frying

Directions
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

Add Wet Ingredients:
Stir in the yogurt, milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix until a soft dough forms. Fold in the grated cheese.

Knead and Roll:
Lightly flour your work surface and knead the dough for a couple of minutes. Roll it out to about 1/2 inch thickness.

Cut the Donuts:
Use a donut cutter (or a round glass and a small bottle cap) to cut out donut shapes.

Fry Until Golden:
Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Fry the donuts in batches until golden brown on both sides — about 2 minutes per side.

Drain and Cool:
Transfer the donuts to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Serving and Storage Tips
Serve Warm: These salty donuts are best served hot and fresh, straight out of the fryer.

Dip Options: Pair with sour cream, spicy ketchup, or a creamy cheese dip for extra flavor.

Store Smart: Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
