Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 2.25 teaspoons Active dry yeast
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 1 cups Whole milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 4 cups Neutral-flavored oil (for frying)
- 0.25 cups Brewed coffee (strong)
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Set aside.
In a small saucepan, heat the milk and butter over low heat until the butter melts. Let cool to lukewarm (about 105-110°F).
Pour the milk mixture into the dry ingredients. Add the eggs and mix until combined. Gradually add the remaining 1.5 cups of flour and knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and shape it into a ball. Place the dough in an oiled bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 to 1.5 hours or until doubled in size.
Roll out the risen dough on a floured surface to about 1/2-inch thickness. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out doughnuts, and use a smaller cutter (or a bottle cap) to cut out the center holes.
Place the cut doughnuts and holes on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover loosely with a towel and let them rise again for 30 minutes.
Heat the oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F. Fry the doughnuts in batches, about 30 seconds to 1 minute per side, or until golden brown. Remove them from the oil using a slotted spoon and transfer to a wire rack lined with paper towels to drain.
To make the coffee glaze, whisk together the brewed coffee, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until smooth.
Dip each doughnut into the coffee glaze, allowing any excess to drip off. Place the glazed doughnuts back on the wire rack to set for 10-15 minutes.
Serve the doughnuts fresh, with your favorite cup of coffee or tea!
