What is a BeaverTail?

A Canadian fried-dough pastry. Yeast dough is stretched by hand into a flat oval 6 to 8 inches long - the shape that gives it its name - then fried and tossed in cinnamon sugar while still hot.

What are beaver tails made of?

A simple enriched yeast dough: warm water, active dry yeast, sugar, all-purpose and whole wheat flour, and salt. They are fried in vegetable oil and finished with cinnamon sugar.

Can I use only all-purpose flour?

Yes. The dough is 2.5 cups all-purpose to 1 cup whole wheat; using all-purpose throughout gives a slightly lighter, paler pastry.

What oil temperature should I fry at?

375°F (190°C), in 2 to 3 inches of vegetable oil in a heavy pot. Each pastry needs only 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown and puffed.

How long does the dough need to rise?

About an hour, until doubled in size. Total time is roughly 1 hour 45 minutes including the 15 minutes of frying.

What toppings can I use?

Cinnamon sugar is the classic. Lemon juice and sugar, chocolate-hazelnut spread, or sliced banana with whipped cream all work - add them immediately while the pastry is hot.
