Donuts
Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (divided, plus more for dusting)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/4 tsp instant yeast (quick acting, 1 packet = 7 grams)
2/3 cup warm milk (110˚F, microwave 35 sec.)
4 Tbsp unsalted butter (melted, divided)
2 egg yolks
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 cup jelly or jam (without large fruit pieces)
1/3 cup granulated sugar (to roll donuts)
Directions:
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, 1/4 cup sugar, yeast, and salt.
Add warm milk, 3 Tbsp melted butter, egg yolks, and vanilla extract; whisk well.
Cover and rest at room temperature for 10 minutes, until bubbles form.
Add remaining flour, knead for 5 minutes in the bowl.
Let dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size (45 min in 100˚F oven or 1 1/2 hours at room temp).
Preheat oven to 375˚F, line a baking sheet with parchment.
Roll dough to 1/2” thick, cut with a 2 1/2 inch round cutter, place on baking sheet and let rise again.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden. Brush with butter and roll in sugar. Fill with jelly.
