We live in a small town and good doughnuts are hard to come by. We would have to drive 30 miles to buy any (like krispy creame). My boys like raised sugar or glazed doughnuts. I would really appreciate a recipe :lol: Nancy
Here is a recipe for glazed doughnuts. You can also use sweet roll dough and just roll them out and fry.
Yeast Doughnuts
1 1/2 C. flour
2 pkg yeast Mix these together
Heat and stir:
3/4 C milk
1/3 C sugar
1/4 cup shortening, margarine or butter
1/2 tsp. salt
heat till warm 120*- 130* until shortening almost melts
add this to flour mix
add in
2 eggs
Beat with an electric mixer on low for 30 seconds, scraping. Beat on high for 3 min
Stir in 1 1/2 - 2 Cups flour
Turn out onto a floured surface.
Knead in enough remaining flour to make a soft dough(3-5 min)
Shape into ball and place in greased bowl; turn once.
Cover and let rise in warm place until doubled(45-60 min)
Punch down. Turn out on floured surface and divide dough in half
Cover; let rest 10 minutes
Roll each half to 1/2 " thickness and cut with a floured doughnut cutter or biscuit cutter
Cover; let rise until very light(45-60 min)
Heat oil for deep frying to 365*
fry doughnuts 2 at a time or more if room fry for 2 min turning once; drain
Makes 16-18
Glaze with powdered sugar icing
1 cup sifted powdered sugar
1/4 tsp vanilla
milk or orange juice mix 1 tbsp at a time until you get the consistencey you want
OR WE LIKE TO USE REFRIDGERATED BISQUITS
AND CUT OUT DONUT HOLES AND FRY THE RINGS
AND PUT CINNAMON AND SUGAR ON TOP,…SOOO GOOD!
Hi, I’m new to the forum, but have been checking it out and it all sounds so delicious. When i was younger my grandmother gave me a recipe for cake donuts that used mace. They actually tasted like the Hostess donuts. Has anyone seen this recipe? Thanks, Wantabechef
