Method
Doughnuts
Prepare the Doughnut Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, 5-spice powder, and salt until well combined.
Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Heat the Oil
In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) over medium heat.
Fry the Doughnuts
Using a spoon or a doughnut cutter, carefully drop the batter into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Drain and Cool
Remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.
