Start your morning right with homemade glazed doughnuts. Theyāre easier to make than you think!

As salamu alaykum. Today I'll give you the best recipe of doughnuts. These doughnuts have a very thin layer of crispiness on the outside, and a soft fluffy interior inside. Its actually is mouth wateringš¤¤š.
LET'S GET STARTED
Ingredients
1 cup whole milk, warmed to about 43°C
1 tbsp active dry
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
6 tbsp butter, melted and slightly cooled
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
4 cups all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled), plus more as needed
1/2 tsp salt
1 liter oil

Yummy and tasty!!
Direction
Pour the warm milk into the bowl of a regular large mixing bowl or stand mixer. Sprinkle yeast and 1/2 tsp of the sugar on top of the milk. Give it a light stir with a spoon and allow to sit for 5 minutes. The mixture should be frothy after 5 minutes. If not, start over withĀ new yeast.
While mixing with a wooden spoon add the remaining sugar, eggs, butter, vanilla, 2 cups of flour, salt. Mix until combined. Add remaining flour and mix until the dough begins to pull away from the sides of the bowl. The dough should be thick, yet soft. And slightly sticky. If it is too wet, add 2-3 more Tablespoons of flour. Make sure you do not add too much extra flour; you want a soft, slightly sticky dough.
Form dough into a ball and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 2 minutes, then place into a greased bowl with butter or oil. Turn the dough over to coat all sides. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in a warm environment to rise until doubled, about 1 and 1/2 hours. For this warm environment, I preheat the oven to 93°C then turn the oven off and place the bowl inside the warm oven.
Once doubled in size, punch down the dough to release any air bubbles. Remove dough from the bowl and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Punch down again to release any more air bubbles if needed. Roll the dough out and cut doughnut shape as you like.
line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Place doughnutĀ and doughnut holes on each. Cover with kitchen towels and allow to rest for about 15-20 minutes as you prepare the oil.Ā Place a cooling rack over a third baking sheet.
Pour oil into the pot set over medium heat. Heat to 191°C. Add 2-3 doughnuts and doughnut holes at a time and cook for 1 minute on each side. Carefully remove with a metal spoon. Wear kitchen gloves if oil is splashing. Place onto prepared rack. Repeat with remaining doughnuts, then turn off .
This is optional {chocolate ganache or sugar glaze } your choice.
For the sugar glaze: Ingredients
2 cups confectionersā sugar, sifted
1/3 cup heavy cream or whole milk.
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Direction
Whisk all of the glaze ingredients together. Dip each warm doughnut (donāt wait for them to cool!) into the glaze, making sure to coat both sides. Place back onto prepared rack to allow excess glaze drip down. The glazeĀ will eventually set + harden on the doughnuts after about 20 minutes.
Doughnuts are best enjoyed the same day, though they keep at room temperature for a couple extra days in an airtight container.
I had This with my family in coffee time. I hope you enjoyed it as much as i enjoyed.
