I've been looking for a good donut recipe for a long time, and finally found it. In addition to the recipe itself, the products must be good, the flour must be of the highest quality, the oil must have a high mass fraction of fat content. Yeast is a separate issue altogether; high-quality yeast is the key to airy dough, and as a result, fluffy donuts.

I love making donuts because simple ingredients make delicious baked goods. It's interesting to watch how the dough comes to life and increases in volume. Decorating American donuts gives you the opportunity to show off your creativity. Each donut can be made unique by decorating it with glaze, chocolate, or powdered sugar.

Try to prove yourself too.

Products:

  • 280 grams of flour.
  • 1 egg.
  • 60 g oil drain.
  • 8 grams of yeast.
  • 60 grams of sugar.
  • 40 ml water.
  • 150 ml milk.
  • chocolate for decoration.
  • oil for frying.

Agree, the list of products is very simple.

6. When the dough has doubled in size, we proceed to the final stage. Using gentle pressure with a rolling pin, roll out the dough to a thickness of 1.5 cm and use a special mold or glass to shape the donuts.

    I'll have to cook. My husband loves donuts very much, but in our city they are sold at inflated prices, so we rarely buy them.

    We recently opened a cafe and they sell donuts there. Of course they are very tasty, but in fact it is really an expensive pleasure. I just can't get enough of two donuts, so I've been looking for recipes that can beat them. And thank you author, because thanks to you I found it!
    The ingredients are simple and the donuts turn out airy and very tasty.I often experiment and add different fillings, and it turns out quite well.
