Cream donuts: the result is just irresistible!

Instructions

Whisk warm water with ⅓ of all sugar and add dry yeast. Whisk again and set aside for 5 minutes.

Step 1
Add the rest of the sugar, buttermilk, eggs and melted butter into the yeast solution. Whisk until sugar dissolves.

Step 2
Add the flour to the wet ingredients and knead the dough until smooth, around 10 minutes. Transfer into an oiled bowl, cover, and set aside for 1 hour.

Step 3
Roll out the dough into a large rectangle.

Step 4
Use a cookie cutter to cut the dough into circles.

Step 5
Use a smaller round cutter to cut out the middle of half of the dough circles.

Step 6
Spray some water on the whole round, and place circles with the hole in the middle on top.

Step 7
Press slightly. Set aside for 15 minutes.

Step 8
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot to about 180°C/350°F. Fry donuts on both sides for 3-4 minutes.

Step 9
If the center puffs out – make a small slit to release the air.

Step 10
Cover golden donuts in sugar and fill each donut hole with custard.

Step 11
Enjoy!
