Looking for a quick and easy dessert? Yogurt donuts are the perfect solution! These fluffy treats are ideal for a sweet snack, a savory breakfast, or even a dessert for friends. I invite you to discover step by step how to prepare them, so you achieve a perfect result every time.

Essential ingredients:
- 250 g natural yogurt (preferably Greek for a creamier texture)
- 1 large egg
- A pinch of salt
- 100 g vanilla sugar (or 50 g regular sugar and 1 packet of vanilla sugar)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
- 300 g flour (sifted to avoid lumps)
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- Oil for frying (sunflower or canola)

Preparation:
1. Start by gathering all the ingredients in a large bowl. Beat the yogurt together with the egg and a pinch of salt for a few minutes until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy. This step is essential for fluffy donuts, so don’t rush!

2. Add the vanilla sugar and vanilla essence to the yogurt and egg mixture. These will give a delicious aroma to your donuts, so choose quality ingredients.

3. Sift the flour together with the baking powder to avoid lumps. This step ensures a fine and airy texture. Gradually incorporate the flour into the wet mixture, mixing with a spatula or wooden spoon. Do not overmix; just until the ingredients are well combined.

4. Heat the oil in a deep pan over medium heat. Check the oil temperature by dropping a bit of batter; if it starts to sizzle, it’s time to start frying.

5. Use a spoon or ice cream scoop to take portions of batter and carefully drop them into the hot oil. The donuts will puff up and turn golden. Fry them for 2-3 minutes on each side or until they achieve a beautiful, crispy color.

6. Remove the donuts onto a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.

Serving suggestions:
For an extra flavor boost, you can sprinkle the donuts with powdered sugar or serve them with warm chocolate sauce or fruit syrup. Also, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream next to the warm donuts for an irresistible combination!

Possible variations:
- Replace some of the yogurt with cottage cheese for a different texture.
- Add some pieces of fruit (bananas or blueberries) to the batter for a burst of flavor.
- Experiment with spices like cinnamon or nutmeg to add a warm note to your donuts.

These yogurt donuts are more than just a quick dessert; they are a way to bring a smile to the faces of your loved ones. I encourage you to try them and enjoy every bite!
