How to section

Welcome friend! Get your self ready to cook some goods. This recipe is also great as a gift for your beloved ones (make them as donuts), give them to your kids instead of store-bought cookies and much more. Wear your apron and follow my lead!

RED FLAG:

In this recipe, you may need different utensils, mentioning: paper towels, saucepan, rolling pin, parchment paper, circular cutter, wire cooling rack.

Simple Steps:

  1. First of all, take warm milk (use the microwave and warm it for 40 seconds) and pour it in a big bowl; add the yeast and combine well.
  2. Cool for 5 minutes.
  3. Add butter, eggs, salt and sugar and beat with a stand mixer. Add half the flour and combine everything together, add the flour left and mix.
  4. Take a mixing bowl, use your hands and make an oil layer before putting the mixture in it.
  5. Cover and let cool for 30 minutes.
  6. Cut as many pieces as you like using a circular cookie cutter.
  7. Fry your donuts (50 seconds each side) and prepare the glaze at the same time.
  8. Cool your kremes and choose a way to glaze them (pour the glaze from the top or dip the donuts onto the glaze).

HOW TO MAKE IT :  

  • In a large measuring jug, combine the milk and boiling water then add a teaspoon of the sugar and the yeast.
  • Stir it gently, then leave it in a warm place for the yeast to activate (aka foam).
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, the rest of the sugar, and the salt. Cut in the butter using your fingers or a pastry blender, until it resembles crumbs.
  • Add the egg (give it a quick beat) and yeast mixture to the flour mix, and mix into a smooth dough. This usually takes about 5 minutes of mixing.
  • Turn the dough out onto a lightly-floured counter and knead for about 5 to 10 minutes—it should feel springy and little bubbles should form under the surface. Place it back in the bowl.
  • cover with a cloth or plastic wrap, and let rise for about an hour until double in size.
  • Once risen, place the dough onto the counter and cut it into 4 pieces. One piece at a time, stretch it into a long rope about an inch to an inch and a half wide.
  • Cut strips about an inch long, ball them up with your hands, and place them on a baking tray or wire rack to wait.
  • Cover the doughnuts holes with a cloth to rise while you heat the oil to 375°F/190C
  • Place the doughnuts into the oil and fry until golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes. Be sure to fry only a few at a time so they don’t overcrowd and stick together.
  • Drain on a paper towel or wire rack over a cloth, before glazing them. Be sure to glaze them warm, or else they won’t get that delicious coverage!
  • Serve at breakfast!

For the glaze:

    • Melt the butter for a minute in a microwave, remove then add powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
    • Thin out the paste with milk and combine until the mixture is thick.
