Makes about 12 cookies
These cookies are crispy on the outside and fudgy in the middle. The brown butter really elevates the cookies and enhances the depth of flavour. They are definitely a crowd pleaser!
Ingredients:
400g flour
190g milk
50g sugar
40g butter
20g sunflower oil (+ more for frying)
1 whole egg
2 egg yolks
1 pinch salt
1 tsp vanilla
7g dried yeast
Nutella (or any doughnut filling you like - jam, dark chocolate, etc)
Directions
Add the yeast to the warm milk and leave to rest for 10 minutes.
In a bowl, add the eggs, oil, melted butter, sugar, salt and vanilla. Mix well.
Add 300g flour, mix, and add the milk. Stir gently with hands. Add the remaining
flour.
Knead for a few minutes on a floured surface. Shape the dough into a ball.
Put in a greased bowl, cover with cling film and leave to rise for 2 hours in a
warm place.
Puff it down gently with your fingers, roll it out to 2 cm thickness, and cut into circles (you can use a small cup the size of your desired doughnuts).
When done, place the circles on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. Leave to rest for 2
hours.
Heat up the oil in a pan to around 180c. The oil should reach about half way in a medium pan. When the oil is ready, add in a few doughnuts.
Fry for a few minutes on each side.
Roll in cinnamon and sugar when out of the oil.
Make a hole gently on the side of the doughnut (with a straw or a knife) and fill with Nutella or filling of choice.
