New recipe. I found these better than the last ones i made.
Ingredients:
-
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
- 2 cups warm milk, approximately 105 degrees F (I used 1/2 cup evaoprated milk and 1.5 cups skim milk)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- Oil, for deep frying
- Powdered (confectioners') sugar, for garnish
Directions:
For the doughnuts: In a food processor, sprinkle the yeast over the warm milk and stir to dissolve; let stand for 5 minutes. Add the sugar, salt, beaten eggs, vanilla, and butter. Blend thoroughly. Add the flour and then using a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment, beat until smooth. You can also knead the dough by hand for about 5 minutes. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill at least 4 hours or overnight.
Roll the dough out on a floured surface to 1/2-inch in thickness. Cut the dough into 1 inch-round doughnuts using a circular cookie cutter (or alternately, a can). Cover with a plastic wrap and let rest for 1 hour in a warm place. Heat oil in a deep fryer to 360 degrees F and fry the doughnuts in batches for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, until lightly browned on both sides. Drain on a paper towel-lined baking tray.
