Ingredients Method Notes

المقادير
  

  • 3 cups flour
  • 1 tablespoon yeast
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup warm milk
  • 50 g butter
  • A pinch of salt and some vanilla
  • Oil for frying
  • For coating: sugar or melted chocolate

Method
 

  1. Mix the flour, yeast, sugar, and salt.
  2. Add the egg, warm milk, butter, and vanilla, then knead into a soft, smooth dough.
  3. Cover the dough and let it rise until doubled in size.
  4. Roll out the dough and cut rings with a donut cutter, then let them rise again for about 20 minutes.
  5. Fry the rings in medium-hot oil until they puff up and turn golden on both sides.
  6. Drain them on paper towels, let them cool slightly, then coat in sugar or chocolate.

ملاحظات

Medium-hot oil ensures they cook through without burning.
The double rise gives you incredibly light donuts.
Coat the donuts while still warm so the sugar sticks, or once cold for the chocolate.
