For the Husarenkrapferl, quickly knead all ingredients into a shortcrust pastry and chill the dough for 30 minutes.
Shape the dough into sticks about 2 cm wide and cut off 1 cm long pieces. Form balls from the dough pieces and press depressions into the center with the handle of a wooden spoon.
Bake the doughnuts without filling in the preheated oven at 170 degrees for about 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
After cooling, place a dollop of jam in each cavity and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
