BAKED Yeast Donuts

Created by Tina Dawson on June 3, 2017

  • Prep Time:10m
  • Cook Time:10m
  • Total Time:2h
  • Serves: 4
  • Yield: About 12 donuts

Ingredients

  • 170 g all-purpose flour + more for dusting
  • 3 g salt
  • 20 g sugar
  • 4 g instant yeast
  • 135 mL milk + more for brushing (vegans substitute with almond milk)
  • 10 mL water
  • 25 mL olive oil

Instructions

Make the dough

  1. Combine the flour, salt, yeast and sugar in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Set aside.
  2. In a heat-proof bowl, combine the milk, water and oil. Microwave until lukewarm (not hot).
  3. Make a well in the center of the flour and pour in the lukewarm liquid. Combine and knead until you get a soft non-sticky dough.

First rise

  1. Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and place in a warm location for an hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.

Shape the donut

  1. Transfer the risen dough to a work surface lightly dusted with flour and roll into a circle about 1/2" thick.
  2. Using a donut cutter (or a sharp-edged glass and a small bottle cap - get creative), cut donuts about 2.5" wide. Gather up remaining dough, roll out and cut. Repeat until you have no more dough left to cut.
  3. Place cut dough onto a large baking tray lined with parchment paper. I needed a large + small baking tray. Loosely cover with cling-film/kitchen towel.

Second rise

  1. Let rise for 30-45 minutes until significantly doubled in size. Brush the tops generously with milk.
  2. Run the icing sugar through a sieve to remove lumps. Stir in the milk, adding a little at a time till you get a pale paste-looking glaze.

Bake!

  1. Preheat oven to 400F/200C. Bake the donuts for 10 minutes, until golden brown on top. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.

Or Fry!

  1. In a small pan, heat about 1" oil on medium heat. Drop a small piece of dough (I used the donut hole for testing) in the hot oil. It should rise immediately, and turn golden brown in a minute.
  2. Drop one risen donut, and deep fry on both sides, turning over when it's golden brown. Drain on paper towels, then move to a wire rack to cool completely. Repeat with the remaining donuts.

Glaze

  1. Glaze or fill according to preference and enjoy! Keeps well at room temperature in an air-tight container for 3 days.
