Baked Donuts

This donut recipe is with a twist.... it doesn't contain eggs nor is deep-fried.


Prep time: 20 mins Cook time: 10 mins Rest time: 90 mins

 

INGREDIENTS :

For dough : 

All-purpose flour 2 1/2 cup

Granulated sugar 1/2 cup

Salt 1/4 tsp

Instant yeast 2 tsp

Warm milk (microwave 35 sec) 1/2 cup

Salted butter (melted) 3 tbsp

Yogurt 6 tbsp

Vanilla extract 2 tsp


For Coating :

Dark chocolate 50 gms

White chocolate 50 gms

Warm milk 3-4 tbsp (as required)

Butter 2 tbsp

Sprinklers or chopped nuts to top with


PREPARATION :

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tsp instant yeast and 1/4 tsp salt.


Add 1/2 cup of warm milk, 3 tbsp melted butter, 6 tbsp yogurt and 2 tsp vanilla extract, and whisk vigorously to combine well.


Cover with plastic wrap and rest at room temperature 10 minutes, until some bubbles form on the surface.


Add remaining 1 1/2 cups flour, adding just enough until dough holds together and no longer sticks to the sides of the bowl. Knead in the bowl for 5 minutes. If dough is really sticking to your hands, dust lightly with flour then continue kneading with clean dry hands. 


Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 hours, or until doubled in size.


Turn dough out onto a floured surface and roll the dough out to just under 1/2” thick. Cut the donuts using the donut cutter or u can cut circles using a 2 1/2 inch round cookie cutter and a small cutter for the center. Re-roll scraps if needed to make 12 donuts total. 


Place donuts on a baking sheet, cover with a tea towel and let rise in a warm place for another 45 min, or until 


Preheat oven to 180°C. Bake uncovered in the center rack for 9-10 minutes or until lightly golden on top.


Let the donuts cool down for few minutes then u can melt the dark and white chocolates separately with a tbsp of butter in each.


After melting the chocolates add 2 - 3 tbsp of warm milk to make the coating shiny.


Dip the donuts in the chocolate mixture and sprinkle it with anything of your choice.
