Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 tablespoon yeast
- ¾ cup warm milk
- Oil for frying
- ½ cup sugar for coating
Instructions
Mix the dry items
- Add flour, sugar and salt to a bowl. Mix well so the dough becomes even and smooth.
Mix the wet items
- Combine warm milk, melted butter and egg. Mix until the liquid looks smooth and creamy.
Add yeast
- Add yeast into the warm milk mix. Let it sit for a few minutes so bubbles start forming.
Make the dough
- Pour the wet mix into the dry mix. Stir until a soft dough forms in the mixing bowl.
Knead the dough
- Knead the dough on a clean surface until smooth. This helps the dough become soft and stretchy.
Let dough rise
- Place dough in a bowl. Cover it and rest for one hour until it becomes big and fluffy.
Roll the dough
- Place the dough on a flat surface. Roll it gently with a rolling pin until medium thick.
Cut the doughnuts
- Use a doughnut cutter or ring. Cut doughnut shapes and remove small center pieces.
Heat the oil
- Place oil in a pot. Heat until medium hot and ready for frying doughnuts safely.
Fry the doughnuts
- Place doughnuts in hot oil. Fry until golden on both sides. Flip for even frying.
Remove from oil
- Lift doughnuts with a slotted spoon. Place on a rack to drain extra oil from the sides.
Coat with sugar
- Roll warm doughnuts in sugar. The sugar sticks well and adds a sweet taste.
Notes
- Use warm milk for smooth dough
- Let the dough rise fully
- Do not use very hot oil
- Roll dough medium thick
- Coat doughnuts while warm
