Serves 15

Prep 5 mins

Cook 9 mins

Ingredients

1 ¼ cups (155g) Plain flour 2 ¼ tsp McKenzie’s Baking Powder 2 tbs caster sugar 1/8 tsp salt 2 tbs water 2 tbs canola oil, more for brushing

To decorate

4 tbs pistachio spread 2 tbs crushed pistachios 1 tbs dried rose petals (optional)

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan, add water and oil and bring to a boil.

Step 3

As soon as it boils, remove saucepan from the heat and immediately add the flour mixture. With a wooden spoon stir until a soft elastic dough ball forms and no flour streaks are visible. Allow to cool for 5 minutes until cool enough to handle.

Step 4

Roll balls of dough about the size of a golf ball. Lightly spray air fryer basket with cooking oil and preheat air fryer 190C for 3 minutes. Whilst air fryer is preheating, lightly brush oil over the donut balls

Step 5

Place balls into air fryer basket ensuring they don’t touch and cook for 9 minutes, turning them over halfway through cooking. Allow donut balls to cool slightly before topping them with pistachio spread and decorating them with crushed pistachios and a few rose petals.

If pistachio spread is too thick to spread, heat it in the microwave for 20 seconds
Get creative with the toppings and use Biscoff spread or Nutella if desired
