Delicious fried cake donut

Delicious fried cake donut

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 egg yolks
  • 40g powdered sugar
  • 1 vanilla sugar
  • 50g butter
  • 1 and a half teaspoons rum flavoring
  • 250 ml semi-skimmed milk
  • 1 cube of yeast
  • 500g plain flour
  • half a teaspoon of salt
  • 1 jar of jam or marmalade
  • oil for frying

METHOD

  1. Prepare the yeast mixture – Heat about half of the milk to body temperature, add a teaspoon of sugar, and crumble in the yeast. Let it sit in a warm place for 10 minutes to activate.
  2. Mix butter with sugar – Take room temperature butter (ideally, set it out half an hour before use) and mix it with powdered sugar.
  3. Add egg yolks – To the butter and sugar mixture, add the egg yolks and beat until it becomes frothy.
  4. Add vanilla sugar and rum flavoring – Sprinkle in the vanilla sugar and add a few drops of rum flavoring. Mix well again.
  5. Add yeast mixture, flour, and remaining milk – Pour the yeast mixture, remaining milk, and sifted flour with salt into the batter. Combine everything together. Let the dough rise – Place the dough in a warm spot to rise for at least 1 hour. The photos show the dough before and after rising.
  6. Roll out the dough and cut circles – On a floured surface, roll out the dough to a thickness of 1 cm and use a glass to cut out circles. Make indentations and let them rise – Use your finger to make indentations in the circles and let them rise on the board for another 20 minutes.
  7. Fry – Pour enough oil into a pot to ensure the doughnuts can float while frying. Fry each side until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side.
  8. Fill – Fill the doughnuts with your favorite jam or preserve. I used homemade strawberry jam (recipe for homemade strawberry jam), but apricot jam also works wonderfully.
