BREAD MAKER DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Place the milk and egg into the pan of your automatic bread machine, and add the butter, flour, sugar, salt, and yeast in that order, with the yeast on top. Select the dough setting, and start the machine.
• When the dough cycle is finished, remove the dough to a floured work surface, and knead a few times to collapse all the bubbles. Cut the dough into 16 pieces, cover them with a damp cloth, and allow to rest for 20 minutes.
• Stretch each ball out into a disk about 1/4 inch thick, and use a small cutter to cut a hole in the center (I used the top of a salt shaker; a bottle top works good too). Let the doughnuts rise on the floured surface until doubled, 30 to 40 minutes.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Gently place a few doughnuts at a time into the hot oil, and fry until they float to the top and turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip the doughnuts over, and fry on the other side. Remove from the oil, and drain on paper towels.

• Let rise, covered, 30 minutes or until doubled.
• Deep fry in fat at 375 degrees.
• Turn doughnuts as they rise to the surface. Fry until brown on both sides.
• Drain on absorbent paper towels. Either glaze or dust with powdered sugar.

MY MOM'S RAISED DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Pour 1/2 cup of warm water into a small bowl, and stir in the yeast and 1 teaspoon of sugar. Allow the yeast mixture to stand until it forms a creamy foam layer on top, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Place milk and vegetable shortening into a small saucepan over medium-low heat and cook until the shortening has melted and the milk has tiny bubbles around the edge. Remove from heat.
• Place 1/4 cup of sugar and the salt into the work bowl of a large stand mixer and pour the milk and shortening into the bowl. Mix on low speed just to dissolve sugar; and allow mixture to stand until warm.
• Beat in the yeast mixture, eggs, and 1 cup of flour on low speed until smooth. Gradually beat in remaining flour to make a soft dough.
• Continue beating the dough on low speed until dough leaves the sides of the bowl, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface and knead until smooth and elastic, 2 or 3 more minutes.
• Form the dough into a ball and place into a large greased bowl. Grease the top of the dough, and cover the bowl with waxed paper. Set the bowl into a warm place; let the dough rise until doubled in size, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
• Punch down the dough and roll out on a floured work surface to 1/2 inch thick. Cut doughnuts out of the dough with a 3 1/2-inch round doughnut cutter with a 1-inch smaller cutter in the center. Let the doughnuts rise on the work surface until very light and fluffy, 40 minutes to 1 hour.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Gently pick up and drop the doughnuts into the hot oil, working in small batches of 2 or 3 at a time, and cook until the doughnuts are light golden brown, turning once, about 2 minutes.
• Drain the doughnuts on paper towels to absorb oil.
• In a bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of warm water and vanilla extract, and stir in the confectioners' sugar to make a glaze. Spread a thin layer of glaze over the warm doughnuts.

BREAD MACHINE DONUTS

Steps:

• Place milk, water, butter, egg, sugar, salt, flour and yeast into bread machine pan in exact order listed. Do not stir!
• Insert baking pan securely into baking unit, close lid, select dough setting and push start.
• When cycle is complete, remove dough from pan and transfer to lightly floured surface.
• Using rolling pin lightly dusted with flour, roll dough to ½ inch thickness.
• Cut with floured dusted donut cutter or circle cookie cutter.
• Transfer donuts to baking sheet that has been covered with wax paper. Place another layer of wax paper on top, then cover with clean tea towel. Let rise 30-40 minutes until slightly raised.
• While donuts are rising heat vegetable oil to 375º (190ºCº) in deep fryer or large heavy pot.
• Fry donuts 2-3 at a time until golden brown on both sides. About 3 minutes.
• Drain on paper towel.
• Sprinkle with granulated or confectioners sugar

BASIC YEAST-RAISED DOUGHNUT

Steps:

• To make the glaze: Combine the confectioners' sugar with 2 tablespoons of water in a small bowl. Mix well then add a little more water, if necessary, to make a smooth, creamy glaze. Cover the glaze directly with plastic wrap and reserve. (For tips on making flavored glazes see the Cook's Note below.) To make doughnuts: Heat the milk in a saucepan over medium-heat. When the milk reaches a simmer pour it into a mixing bowl and allow it to cool.
• Meanwhile, measure 1/4 cup of lukewarm water into a small bowl. Sprinkle the yeast into the water then let the mixture stand until the yeast dissolves, about 7 minutes. Stir the yeast mixture into the milk along with 1 tablespoon of the sugar. Mix in 1 1/2 cups of the flour (by hand or with an electric mixer) then cover the dough starter with a clean towel and set it aside to rise and rest in a warm place for 1 hour. When the dough has relaxed, cream the butter with the remaining 1/4 cup of sugar. Beat the butter mixture into the dough a little at a time. Mix in the egg and salt then mix in the remaining 3 cups flour. Work the dough until it is smooth then place it in a well-greased bowl. Cover again with a clean towel and set aside in a warm place until doubled in bulk, at least one hour.
• Turn the dough out onto floured board and roll it out about 1/2-inch thick. Using a floured doughnut cutter, cut out the doughnuts. Transfer the doughnuts to a clean floured board or baking sheet. Cover once again with a clean towel, and set aside to rise until doubled. Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep pot over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 375 degrees F. Working in batches of 2 or 3, fry the doughnuts until they float. Once they bob to the surface of the oil, carefully flip them over. Continue cooking, turning as necessary, until the doughnuts are uniformly golden-brown.
• Transfer the cooked doughnuts to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. While the doughnuts are still warm, dip 1 side of each into the glaze then set aside to cool until the glaze firms. Serve warm or at room temperature.

OLD-FASHIONED YEAST-RAISED DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• Melt butter in milk and cool to lukewarm. Place water in a warm large mixing bowl, sprinkle in yeast, and stir until dissolved; add milk mixture and sugar. By hand, beat 2 1/2 cups flour in until smooth; mix in eggs, salt, and spices. Mix in remaining flour, adding a little extra, if needed, to form a soft but manageable dough. Knead lightly 1 minute on a floured pastry cloth; shape into a ball, place in a greased large bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm, draft-free spot until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
• Punch dough down, roll 1/2-inch thick on pastry cloth, using a floured, stockinette-covered rolling pin. Cut with a floured doughnut cutter and place 1 1/2-inches apart on un-greased baking sheets. Reroll and cut scraps. Cover with cloth and let double in bulk.
• Meanwhile, begin heating fat in a deep fat fryer. When doughnuts have risen and fat has reached 375 degrees F, ease 4 doughnuts into fat, 1 at a time. Fry about 2 minutes until golden brown all over, using tongs to turn. Drain on paper toweling.
• While doughnuts are warm, roll in topping.
• Jelly Doughnuts: Prepare as directed, but roll dough 1/4-inch thick instead of 1/2-inch. Cut in 2 1/2-inch rounds and put 1 teaspoonful tart jelly in the center of 1/2 the rounds. Top with remaining rounds, moisten touching edges slightly, and pinch to seal. Let rise, then fry as directed. Roll in confectioners' sugar while still warm.
• Crullers: Prepare as directed, but instead of cutting into doughnuts, cut in strips 8-inches long and 1/2 to 3/4-inch wide; let rise, then twist strips several times and pinch ends. Fry at once and roll in topping while still warm.

PERFECT BREAD MACHINE-AIR FRYER DONUTS

Steps:

• Place milk, egg, almond extract, butter, flour, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and yeast in a bread machine in the order listed. Run Dough cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and punch it down. Roll out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into shapes.
• Transfer to floured parchment paper and cover with lightly greased plastic wrap. Allow to rise for 30 minutes.
• Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Spray the basket with cooking spray.
• Arrange donuts and holes in a single layer in the air fryer and spay with oil. Leave about 1/2 inch around each piece, as they will grow. Cook for 4 minutes. Repeat until all donuts and holes are cooked.
• While the first batch cooks in the air fryer, prepare the glaze: Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in confectioners' sugar and almond extract. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 tablespoon of hot water at a time until the glaze is thin, but not watery.
• Dip hot donuts in the glaze, using a fork to flip and coat each side. Cool on a wire rack over a rimmed baking sheet (they will drip and make a mess!) for 10 minutes.

YEAST- RAISED REFRIGERATOR DOUGHNUTS

Steps:

• place shortening, sugar, salt, mace, lemon zest (if using) in a small bowl and pour over boiling water.
• Stir until sugar dissolves and shortening melts.
• Mix in evaporated milk and cool until warm (110-115°F).
• Sprinkle yeast over very warm water in large bowl.
• Stir until yeast is dissolved.
• Mix in the cooled shortening mixture into the yeast; beat in eggs.
• Add 4 cups of flour and beat hard with electric mixer at high speed 1-2 minutes or until smooth.
• SLOWLY beat in enough of the remaining 3 1/2 cups of flour to make a very soft dough (IT WILL BE STICKY).
• Place dough in large, well-buttered bowl, then turn dough in bowl to grease all over.
• Lay a piece of buttered wax paper on top of dough, then cover bowl with a lid.
• Place in refrigerator for 4-5 hours or until needed (it will rise as it stands in refrigerator).
• Add enough oil into deep fat fryer to a depth of 3 inches and heat to 360°F.
• BE CAREFUL PLEASE.
• Take out whatever amount of dough you need (1/3 of the dough should yield about 10 doughnuts) and roll out on floured board with floured rolling pin.
• Cut with 3" doughnut cutter and let stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
• Fry doughnuts in oil, no more than 2-3 at a time (with their holes).
• Cook for 1 1/2 minutes per side (the holes will cook faster) or until they are rich caramel brown.
• Drain on crumpled paper towels as they come from the hot oil.
• Cool to almost room temperature and if desired, dip quickly in glaze (for the glaze: blend together confectioners sugar, boiling water, and lemon juice).
• Let them drip-dry on wire rack set over waxed paper.
• •or roll in sugar or cinnamon sugar.
• **if you don't have a doughnut cutter, use a 3-inch biscuit cutter and a smaller biscuit cutter to make the center hole.
