Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams All-purpose flour
- 40 grams Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Instant yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 120 milliliters Unsweetened almond milk
- 50 grams Coconut oil
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 grams Jam of choice
- 30 grams Confectioners' sugar
- 1000 milliliters Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.
In a small saucepan, warm the almond milk slightly over low heat, just until it's lukewarm.
Melt the coconut oil and add it to the warm almond milk, along with the vanilla extract. Mix well.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 8-10 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
Once risen, punch down the dough gently and roll it out to about 1 cm thick on a floured surface.
Use a round cutter (about 6 cm in diameter) to cut out rounds of dough.
Let the dough rounds rise again on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for about 30 minutes, or until puffed up.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a deep pan to 180°C (350°F).
Carefully place the doughnuts into the hot oil, frying them in batches for about 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown.
Remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Fill a piping bag with your favorite jam, and using a narrow nozzle, gently insert it into the side of each doughnut to fill.
Dust the doughnuts with confectioners' sugar while they're still warm.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
