Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar (plus 1 tablespoon for activating yeast)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup warm milk (110°F)
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1 cup whole milk (or almond milk/soy milk)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter (melted, or coconut oil for dairy-free)
  • 2 large eggs (or flaxseed meal with water for vegan substitute)
  • 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for non-dairy option)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or almond extract as a substitute)
  • Oil for frying
  • Sugar and cinnamon for coating (optional)
  • Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of warm milk with 1 tablespoon of sugar and the yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Create a well in the center and add the activated yeast mixture, the remaining milk, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a dough forms.
  3. Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for 1-2 hours or until doubled in size.
  4. Once risen, punch down the dough and transfer it to a floured surface. Roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick. Use a donut cutter or two round cookie cutters to cut out donut shapes. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Cover the shaped donuts with a cloth and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes until fluffy.
  6. Heat oil in a deep pan to 350°F. Carefully drop the donuts in, frying for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  7. While the donuts cool, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  8. Use a piping bag fitted with a small round tip to inject the whipped cream into each donut. Be generous for that delightful creaminess!
  9. For an extra touch, you can roll the filled donuts in a mix of sugar and cinnamon or simply dust them with powdered sugar.

Keywords: Make sure your milk is warm but not hot when activating the yeast. Allowing the dough to rise properly gives your donuts that fluffy texture.
