Doughnut - Bread
If you have ever been in Canada, especially Ottawa, Ontario, we have a pastry called BeaverTails® -- a whole-wheat pastry, fried and covered in an assortment of goodies. The Indians originally made these, but they were called pigs' ears. Over the years I have perfected the recipe to the point where I and my friends no longer go out to get them. I just make 'em at home! Enjoy, EH!

Thera's Canadian Fried Dough

½ cup warm water (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
5 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 pinch white sugar
1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
⅓ cup white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 beaten eggs
⅓ cup vegetable oil
5 cups whole-wheat flour divided
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
2 cups white sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon or to taste
Bread Step 1 Mix warm water yeast and 1 pinch of sugar in a large bowl and let stand until the yeast begins to foam and form a creamy layer about 5 minutes. Stir in milk 1/3 cup sugar salt vanilla extract eggs and 1/3 cup vegetable oil until the sugar has dissolved. Mix in about half the whole-wheat flour and stir until the dough is too stiff to add more flour. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Knead until smooth and elastic about 10 minutes. Form the dough into a ball place into an oiled bowl and cover. Let rise until the dough has doubled in size about 1 hour. Step 2 Punch down the dough knead a few times to reshape it and pinch off a piece of dough about the size of an egg. Roll the dough ball out into an oval shape about 1/4 inch thick. Place finished fried dough on a cloth and cover while you finish rolling out the pastries. Step 3 Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Oil should be at least 4 inches deep. Combine 2 cups of sugar with cinnamon to taste in a shallow dish or pie plate and set aside. Step 4 Gently lower the pastries one at a time into the hot oil and fry 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown. Blot excess oil from fried pastries with paper towels; gently press each pastry into the cinnamon sugar while still warm. Shake off excess sugar.
