Serve these doughnuts fresh for the best texture.
If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Reheat them in a microwave for a few seconds to restore some softness.
Variations:
Glazed Doughnuts: After frying, dip the doughnuts in a simple glaze made from powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract.
Chocolate Doughnuts: Coat your doughnuts with melted chocolate for a richer treat.
Filled Doughnuts: Once cooled, use a pastry bag to fill them with jam, custard, or chocolate ganache.
FAQ:
Can I make the doughnut dough ahead of time?
Yes, you can make the dough ahead of time and refrigerate it for up to 2 hours. Just let it come to room temperature before rolling it out and frying.
Can I bake the doughnuts instead of frying them?
While frying gives the doughnuts their signature texture, you can bake them at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-12 minutes for a lighter version.
What if I don’t have a doughnut cutter?
You can use two round cookie cutters, one larger than the other, to cut out the doughnuts.
