Some time ago, I received this recipe for doughnuts from a dear friend, and only now have I had the chance to try it out. I love it, and I’m sorry I didn’t try it sooner. My little girls enjoy these No Yeast Yogurt Doughnuts so much. These fluffy little balls of fried dough, served slightly warm and dusted with powdered sugar can make a great treat during the day or even for breakfast, alongside a good coffee or tea.
This recipe is so easy that you need less than 30 minutes to have them ready to serve. As they are made with no yeast, you don’t have to wait for the dough to rise, and there is no need to roll the dough and cut. It is very easy, you just need to mix the ingredients for the dough and it’s ready to be fried.
You can either drop teaspoons of dough in the hot oil or use a piping bag to get similar little balls of doughnuts. They can also be a perfect dish for whenever you have unexpected guests and wish to give them a warm welcome. Hope you will try these No Yeast Yogurt Doughnuts and enjoy!
How to make easy no-yeast yogurt doughnuts
Begin with whisking together flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl. Add beaten eggs, vanilla extract, and Greek yogurt, mixing until combined.
In a medium skillet or pot, heat oil over medium heat. Drop teaspoons of dough into the oil or use a piping bag to squeeze out 1-inch (2.5 cm) pieces of dough and cut with scissors for each doughnut.
Allow the doughnuts to fry until they fluff up and turn golden brown on all sides, turning them around if needed with a spatula.
Once cooked, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Dust with powdered sugar before serving and enjoy!

I would love to try this recipe but I can only find NON FAT plain Greek yogurt, which I would like to use. How can I compensate to be able to get a nice result? Thanks!
I think they should be fine with no fat plain yogurt too
