I made my first batch of donuts yesterday! And today I made it again! They taste really good!! I am really happy about it!
They were really easy to make too! I did have a little bit of trouble with the dough. I thought the dough was too thick. But I still did it without adding anything else to make it better. And they still tasted really good! Today I made it and the dough was perfect! I love making it now! I made my donuts that were with chocolate and powdered sugar! One batch would be with powdered sugar and the other with chocolate. They are just so good!!
Here is the recipe!
1 cup warm milk.
1 large egg.
1/8 cup sugar.
2 tsp yeast.
2 and 3/4 cups bread flour.
1/2 tsp salt.
2 tbsp butter.
In a mixing bowl add, milk, egg, sugar, and yeast. Then mix. Then add bread flour and salt and mix until doughy. Then add butter and of course mix it. Mix it for about 4 mins and then take out and cover and proof for 1 hour or until doubled its size. After it's done, punch all air out of it and shape it into donuts. Get a small pot and pour olive oil. about 2 cups or more. It depends on the size of the pot. How you know it's ready to be put in oil is, get a little bit of water in your hand and sprinkle it on top of the oil and see if it makes a sort of like this crackling sound then you know its ready! When the donuts are a little bit crispy brown that's when you know it's also ready! :) Then if you have chocolate chips in your house you can melt those and drizzle them on or do it however you want! Or if you want to put powdered sugar just sprinkle it on! Do whatever you want with your donuts!!
Here is a picture of me just finished doing some donuts!!
