Como fazer Loukoumathes Greek Doughnut Holes

In a large bowl, dissolve 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast in 1/2 cup of warm water (105-115°F). Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
In a separate large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and a pinch of salt.
Add 1 cup of milk, 2 large eggs, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and the zest of 1 orange to the dry ingredients.
Gradually add the yeast mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Add 2 cups of the flour mixture; mix until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, gradually add the remaining 1 cup of flour, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough is soft but not sticky.
Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for about 2 hours, or until doubled in size.
Heat about 3 inches of vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C).
Using a small spoon or a pastry bag fitted with a large round tip, carefully drop small balls of dough (about 1 teaspoon each) into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer.
Fry the loukoumathes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the loukoumathes with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
While the loukoumathes are still warm, gently toss them in a mixture of 1 cup honey and 2 tablespoons of warm water.
Sprinkle generously with ground walnuts and cinnamon.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
