Servings: 12
Preparation: 90m
Cooking: 20m
Skill Level: Intermediate (yeast + frying temp control)
Mise En Place:
Glaze
Mix milk + yeast + pinch sugar → foam 5 min. Add eggs, butter, sugar, flour + salt. Mix to a soft, slightly sticky dough. Knead 6–8 min until elastic.
First rise: greased bowl, covered, warm place ~60 min until doubled.
Roll to 1.25 cm (½ in), cut rings. Second rise on tray, covered, 30–45 min until puffy.
Heat oil to 180°C (350°F). Fry 60–90 sec per side until pale-golden (Krispy Kreme is on the lighter side). Drain on rack.
Dip while hot in glaze: whisk glaze to a thin ribbon consistency; dip top then flip to coat. Let set on rack.
Not a Chef but... Just call him Chef, please!
If doughnuts absorb oil, oil was too cool — raise temp slightly and try again.
