For a richer flavor, try using brown butter instead of melted butter in the dough. If you don't have a bread machine, you can knead the dough by hand or with a stand mixer until it is smooth and elastic. Adjust the amount of cinnamon sugar to your preference. You can also add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom for extra warmth. Be careful not to overheat the oil, as the dough will burn on the outside before it cooks through. These are best served fresh and warm, but leftovers can be reheated in a toaster oven or microwave.

01 Step
Recipe View Combine Dough Ingredients: In the specified order—warmed milk, beaten egg, salt, sugar, melted butter, flour, and active dry yeast—add all ingredients into a bread machine. (Estimated time: 5 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Start Dough Cycle: Initiate the dough cycle on your bread machine and allow it to run its course. (Estimated time: varies by machine, typically 1-1.5 hours)
03 Step
Recipe View Rest the Dough: Once the dough cycle is complete, gently remove the dough from the bread machine and place it on a lightly floured surface. Cover it with a large mixing bowl to prevent drying, and let it rest for 10-15 minutes. (Estimated time: 10-15 minutes)
04 Step
Recipe View Shape the Dough: Divide the rested dough into 10 equal portions. Take each portion and flatten it, then gently stretch it into an oval shape, approximately 8x6 inches. Aim for a 'beaver tail' shape if desired. (Estimated time: 15-20 minutes)
05 Step
Recipe View Heat the Oil: In a deep-fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature. (Estimated time: 10 minutes)
06 Step
Recipe View Fry the Dough: Carefully place one or two dough pieces at a time into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown on each side, approximately 2 minutes per side. Avoid overcrowding the fryer to maintain oil temperature. (Estimated time: 4 minutes per batch)
07 Step
Recipe View Drain and Sugar: Remove the fried dough from the oil and place it on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. While still warm, sprinkle generously with cinnamon sugar. (Estimated time: 5 minutes)
08 Step
Recipe View Serve: Serve immediately and enjoy!
