Directions

  1. Tear yeast into small pieces, stir into warm water until dissolved. Add beer, let stand for 5 minutes.

  2. Stir hot water and raisins together in a bowl, let stand until plumped, about 5 minutes. Drain any excess water.

  3. Combine flour and salt in a large bowl, stir in yeast mixture and beaten eggs. Mix in raisins and apple. Cover with plastic wrap, leave dough in a warm place to rise, 8 hours to overnight.

  4. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Shape scoops of dough into golf-ball-size balls using 2 metal teaspoons, drop carefully into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
