Water 1/2 cup
Fresh yeast 2.12 oz
Yolks 2 pcs.
Butter or margarine 1 tablespoon
Flour 13.05 oz
Sugar 2 tablespoons
Salt to taste
Powdered sugar to taste
Vegetable oil for deep frying
Instruction:
Cooking time is one hour
To start, we warm up soy milk. (If you don’t like it, you can take cow’s milk.) Add water to it, a teaspoon of sugar and heat everything together to a temperature of 84 F.
Pour a warm mixture of fresh yeast and mix. (In this recipe, it is important to take fresh yeast.) We
leave the yeast for 5-10 minutes until a “cap” is formed.
Meanwhile, sift the flour into a bowl. Separate the yolks, add to the flour. Add soft butter. Add sugar, a pinch of salt, vanilla. Pour in the yeast mixture. Knead with a mixer – nozzles for the dough. Sprinkle the table with flour. Knead the dough with your hands a little more.
Add a drop of vegetable oil, knead a little more and leave the dough alone until it rises twice. The dough has risen. We roll it out into a layer, no thicker than a centimeter. We cut out donuts in a round shape. If there is no form, you can use a glass, etc.
We leave the cut circles to melt for 15 minutes they should rise twice. Heat the oil to a temperature of no more than 180 degrees and fry the donuts in boiling oil. We take out the donuts, put them on a paper napkin to remove excess oil, and load the next portion.
Decorate with powdered sugar. We pour it into a strainer, and sift it from a height-sprinkle donuts. So it turns out neatly, evenly and beautifully. You can fill donuts with chocolate filling (or your favorite jam). Bon Appetit!
