I wanted to buy donuts, but it was raining cats and dogs. Since it was impossible to go out, I decided to make this for my children.

There's no need to drain the tofu. If the dough turns out too soft to form balls, scoop with a spoon and drop it directly into the oil to deep-fry. If the balls are too big, the inside might remain uncooked, so I recommend to form smaller balls. The dough is not too sweet, so feel free to coat with sugar, kinako, cinnamon sugar, chocolate, or icing. Be creative! Recipe by chikappe

Steps

1

Add the tofu to the pancake mix. Use your hands and mix thoroughly. Form into small balls. If it's difficult to form, don't force it.
2

You can also scoop up the dough or batter and drop it into the oil directly using a spoon.
3

Heat some frying oil and deep-fry the donut balls. If the dough is too soft to form balls, use spoons to drop the dough directly into oil.
4

Drain the fried donuts. Optionally coat with cinnamon sugar or kinako (toasted ground soybean flour) mixed in sugar. They're also good just plain!
5

As long as the ratio of tofu to pancake mix is 1:1, you don't need to stick to the 200 g amount. When I made this the second time, I just had 135 g of tofu so I used 135 g of pancake mix.
