Instructions

1.In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs with a whisk until frothy.

3.In a separate bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add the flour mixture to the egg mixture, stirring until just combined to form a dough.
4.On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about a 1-inch thickness. Use a donut cutter to cut out the doughnuts.
5.In a large saucepan or deep-fryer, heat about 2 inches of oil over medium heat to 375°F. Fry the doughnuts in batches until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
6.In a small saucepan, mix together 1 cup of granulated sugar, 3/4 cup of water, 1/2 lemon juice, and 1/2 cup of honey. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is syrupy.
7.Dip the fried doughnuts in the honey syrup, then place on a wire rack to cool.
