Donuts
This is a recipe I've tried a few times now, and this time I got it just right. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!
Ingredients
- 600 gr plain flour
- 260 ml full milk
- 2 medium eggs
- 11 gr instant dry yeast
- 100 gr butter
- 40 gr sugar
- 8 gr salt
- 8 gr vanilla sugar
For the coating I used:
- Sugar
- Chocolate Glaze (Mix it all together)
- 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons of milk
- 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder
- Red Vanilla Donut Glaze (Mix it all together)
- 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar
- 2 tablespoons of milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1. Add all the ingredients into the mixing bowl, start mixing for 2 minutes at low speed
2. After that, increase the speed and continue mixing for another 10 minutes
3. Remove the dough from the bowl and gently make a ball
4. Place the dough in a greased bowl, set it aside and let it leaven until it doubles the size
5. Put a bit of flour on the table and place the dough on top. Start rolling it until it has about 1 cm thick. Note: Make sure that you have the same thickness throughout
6. Cut your dough with a donut cutter, if you don´t have, you can use 2 round cutters, one bigger and another smaller to make the hole
7. Note: I put my donuts in a peace of baking paper each, as I show in one of the pictures.
8. Set it aside, again, to leaven a little more, but now just the time to rise 50%
9. Put the oil in a frying pan at 160 ˚C
10. Put your donuts in the pan, and let them fry until they become gold.
11. Take them out to a plate with kitchen paper so the oil can drain
12. You can decorate as you like
