Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 teaspoon salt
1 ½ cups warm water (about 110 degrees Fahrenheit)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cups canola oil for frying pan
Toppings: powdered sugar, chocolate syrup, feta cheese, yogurt, jam, etc…

Directions:
Sift together the flour, yeast, and salt; set aside. With your electric mixer on low (or “knead”), mix together the water and olive oil. Add in the dry ingredients, one tablespoon at a time. Knead together until the dough is soft, but not sticky. If the dough feels dry, add in some water, one tablespoon at a time. If the dough is too moist, add in a bit of flour until you reach the desired consistency. Transfer the dough to a large bowl that’s been greased with some olive oil. Let it rest for 30 minutes. When ready, pinch off some dough and pull it at the sides with your fingers to mold it into a disc, the size of a standard pancake. In a large frying pan place 2 cups of canola oil and heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot enough, (around 370 degrees Fahrenheit), carefully drop in the fritters, one to two at a time, and fry until golden in color, about 3 minutes, flipping only once. Place on paper towels to drain.

Serve immediately.
