What could be better than a hot aromatic donut and a cup of aromatic coffee for breakfast? Perhaps only two donuts! Moreover, making delicious donuts, as in the famous American confectionery chain, is not difficult at all!
It is necessary
- flour - 300 g
- milk - 200 ml
- dry yeast - 1 teaspoon
- butter - 30 g
- egg yolk - 3 pcs
- sugar - 2 tablespoons
- cognac - 1 tablespoon
- salt
- vanilla (or vanilla sugar)
- vegetable oil
- chocolate, almond petals, coconut for garnish
Instructions
Step 1
Dissolve the yeast in warm milk, leave for 10-15 minutes. Melt the butter and cool to room temperature. Sift the flour into a large bowl.
Step 2
Mix yeast with yolks, butter, sugar, vanilla, cognac and a pinch of salt. Stir until smooth.
Step 3
Mix the resulting liquid mass with flour. Knead a soft dough. Lightly grease a bowl with vegetable oil, place the dough in it and send it to a warm place for an hour.
Step 4
After an hour, knead the dough and roll out a layer 1-1.5 cm thick. Cut out circles with a cup, cut holes with glasses. Let the cut donuts rest for 20 minutes under a towel.
Step 5
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan (layer about three centimeters so that the donuts float freely). Fry the donuts until golden brown on both sides in small batches. Put the finished donuts on paper napkins to absorb excess oil.
Step 6
Cool the finished donuts, pour over with chocolate and decorate if desired. Bon Appetit!
