Directions

  1. 1In a measuring jug, mix some yeast and milk, and wait for about 5 minutes.
  2. 2In the meantime, put all ingredients (2 eggs, melted butter, sugar, salt) in the stand mixer with the dough hook.
  3. 3Add half the flour and mix it until just combined.
  4. 4Add the other half of the flour and keep mixing.
  5. 5If the dough is too wet, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until you can hold and mould it.
  6. 6Let the dough sit for about an hour with a damp cloth over the top until it has doubled or tripled in size.
  7. 7Once the dough is ready, roll it to about half an inch thickness and cut the donuts using a Nutritbullet cup and its smaller attachment.
  8. 8Place each donut on individual parchment paper squares for easier frying.
  9. 9Let the donuts proof for about half an hour until they are puffy.
  10. 10Fry each donut for about 45 seconds on each side, until lightly golden brown.
  11. 11Place the donuts on a paper towel to drain excess oil and let them cool on a cooling rack.
  12. 12Make the glaze by mixing icing sugar and milk until the right consistency is achieved.
  13. 13Dip each cooled donut in the glaze, ensuring most sides are covered. Drain excess glaze and let cool.
