Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 240 ml Milk
- 57 grams Unsalted butter
- 1 large Egg
- 360 grams All-purpose flour
- 50 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2.25 teaspoons Instant yeast
- 100 grams Granulated sugar (for coating)
- 60 grams Melted butter (for brushing)
Instructions
Pour the milk and melted butter into the bread machine pan. Add the egg.
Add the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and salt into the pan. Make a small well in the flour and add the instant yeast.
Set the bread machine to the dough cycle and start it. The dough will combine, knead, and rise in the machine.
Once the dough cycle is complete, transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface.
Roll the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a doughnut cutter or a round cookie cutter (with a smaller cutter for the center) to cut out doughnut shapes. Re-roll scraps and repeat until all the dough is used.
Place the doughnuts and doughnut holes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space for them to rise. Cover loosely with a clean kitchen towel and let rise for 30–45 minutes or until puffy.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Bake the doughnuts for 8–10 minutes or until they are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking to keep them soft.
While the doughnuts are baking, prepare the melted butter and pour the granulated sugar for coating into a shallow bowl.
Once the doughnuts are out of the oven, let them cool slightly for about 5 minutes. Brush each doughnut lightly with melted butter, then roll it in sugar to coat evenly.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Enjoy your homemade baked sugar doughnuts!
