Bread Maker Doughnuts
I finally found a good doughnut recipe! These light and fluffy doughnuts are made with a yeast dough that’s prepared in a bread machine. When the doughnuts have cooled slightly, top them with sugar, chocolate, or your other favorite ingredients.
- Prep Time: 30 minutes
- Cook Time: 40 minutes
- Additional Time: 2 hrs 20 minutes
- Total Time: 3 hrs 30 minutes
Ingredients
- ½ cup warm milk
- ½ large egg, beaten
- ¼ cup butter
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup white sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 8 cups vegetable oil for frying
Directions
- Place milk, egg, butter, flour, sugar, salt, and yeast into a bread machine in the order listed, or follow the order recommended by your manufacturer if different. Run Dough cycle.
- Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.
- Knead dough a few times on a floured work surface to collapse all the bubbles. Cut dough into 16 pieces. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 20 minutes.
- Stretch each ball out into a 1/4-inch-thick disk. Use a small cutter to cut a hole in the center of each disk. Let doughnuts rise on the floured surface until doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Working in batches of 2 to 3, gently place doughnuts into hot oil; fry until they float to the top and turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip doughnuts and repeat on the other side. Drain on paper towels.
