My family really enjoyed this donuts. I got the recipe from Family Circle. Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups sifted flour, plus more |
sifted flour, for rolling |
3 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
3 large egg yolks |
2/3 cup sugar |
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted |
3/4 cup milk |
6 cups vegetable oil, for frying |
1/2 cup superfine sugar, blended with |
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, lightly beat yolks on medium speed. Gradually add sugar, beating until pale and slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Mix in butter. Add flour mixture alternately with milk, stirring with wooden spoon until combined.
3. On well-floured surface, with floured rolling pin, roll dough into 1/2 inch thickness. Let rest 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, heat oil to 365º (a cube of bread will be browned and crisp after 1 minute) in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat.
5. Cut into doughnuts with 2 3/4-inch round cutter along with a 3/4-inch round cutter for the centers. Gather scraps and re-roll if needed.
6. Coating – place cinnamon-sugar in a small bowl.
7. Carefully slip the doughnuts and the doughnut holes, 3 or 4 at a time into the hot oil. Fry until golden about 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels, then transfer while still warm to the cinnamon sugar mix, coat all over. Serve warm.
