Recipe by /contributors/molly-baz In Epi's 3-Ingredient Recipes series, we show you how to make great food with just three ingredients (plus staples like oil, salt, and pepper). You'll impress everyone with these flaky, puffy doughnuts.

Ingredients

1 (17.3-ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons maple syrup
Canola oil (for frying; about 2 quarts)

Instructions

Fold 1 pastry sheet into thirds lengthwise, then again into thirds crosswise. Using a rolling pin, roll out into a 9x6" rectangle. Fold into thirds again and roll out to a 9x3 1/2" rectangle. Transfer to a baking sheet and chill 15 minutes. Repeat with remaining pastry sheet.
Meanwhile, whisk powdered sugar, maple syrup, and 1 tsp. water in a small bowl.
Using 3" cutter, punch out 3 rounds from 1 dough strip, then punch out center of each round with 1" cutter. Transfer doughnuts to baking sheet. Gather holes and scraps, re-roll, and punch out 1 more doughnut. Repeat with second strip; you should have 8 doughnuts.
Fit a large heavy pot with thermometer and pour in oil to come 2" up sides of pot. Heat oil over medium-high until thermometer registers 350 ºF. Working in 2 batches, fry doughnuts until golden brown, about 4 minute per side. Using a spider or slotted spoon, transfer to a wire rack set in a rimmed baking sheet and let cool 2 –3 minutes. Drizzle with maple glaze and let set before serving.
