Easy Sweet Potato Doughnut Recipe (no yeast) ขนมไข่เต่า ขนมไข่นกกระทา - Hot Thai Kitchen

Super popular Thai street food that are so easy to make at home! These are the easiest doughnut recipe ever (or more like doughnut holes?). No yeast, no kneading, no proofing, yet they still have that yummy chewiness and airiness we all love in doughnuts. Sweet potato makes up the majority of the dough, so not only does that make it flavourful, it's even healthier! As healthy as doughnuts could ever be anyway :)
You can use any kind of sweet potato you like (or even mix in some taro) as long as they're not the orange-flesh ones often referred to as "garnet yams" or "jewel yams" because they are too wet. If you can get the really dark purple sweet potatoes, they make the most beautiful purple doughnuts!
Make sure you eat this while they're fresh as they don't keep well. The dough can be made in advance and kept in the fridge for a few days, so you can fry up only as much as you can eat in 1 sitting. Warning, they are absolutely addictive!
