I have been feeling quite lazy for the past few days. I had cold, so i was taking my pills. It made me feel dizzy always and i couldn’t properly cook. This made me go out of recipes ,Usually i will have more than 10 recipes on drafts, but now i have only couple of them. That too is a kozhukattai recipe which i made for ganesh chaturthi. I didn’t feel like posting them now. So yesterday, i took all my energy and decided to do my long time wanted recipe, a jelly donut and spain churros with chocolate dipping sauce. I made them too.


I wanted to post these baby first because i am telling you, this is one of the best doughnut recipe ever. It was soft and fluffy, just perfect. I already posted a eggless donut recipe, but this one hit the spot and it is so much better than that. Now i have made clear that this is doing to be my go to donut recipe. I will be making it quite often too..

I adore donuts, these fluffy sweet things make me crave for them too. These donuts are even special because they are filled with jam, you can fill them with sweet cream too, i will share different variation very soon..
So give these a try and let me know how they turn out for you..

Preparation Time : 15 mins
Resting Time : 2 Hours
Cooking Time : 2 to 3 mins per batch
Makes : 20 small donuts
Recipe Source: Laurainthekitchen

Ingredients:

All Purpose Flour / Maida – 2.5 cups / 300 grams
Sugar – 3 tblspn
Egg – 1
Warm Milk – 3/4 cup / 180 ml
Yeast – 2 tsp
Vanilla Essence – 1 tsp
Unsalted Butter – 4 tblspn melted
Salt – 1/4 tsp
Oil for Deep frying
Jam or Preserves – 1.5 cups 


For Cinnamon Sugar :
Granulated Sugar – 1 cup ( powdered)
Cinnamon Powder – 2 tblspn


Method:

Start by activating yeast. Take yeast in a bowl, add in 1 tsp of sugar and 3 to 4 tblspn of warm milk. Leave it aside for 5 mins till the yeast is foamy and bubbles up. 

Now take egg, sugar, vanilla,, milk, salt in a large mixing bowl and beat it well so the sugar is melted.

Now add in the foamed yeast mix and mix well. 

Add in flour and mix well with a spoon and knead it to form a dough. It will be a soft, non sticky dough. Cover the dough with a cling wrap and leave it to rise for 1 hour (In colder region it may take 2 to 3 hours)

Once it is doubled in size, punch the air out and transfer the dough to a floured work surface. Roll the dough to 1 ot 2 cm thickness. Use a cookie cutter to cut out rounds.

Now place the cutouts in a floured tray and cover again and let it rise for 30 to 45 mins. Use the leftover scraps to keep on rolling.

Now Heat oil for deep frying, Once the oil is hot, drop the donuts and fry till golden on both sides, it will take just couple of mins.

Once fried remove them to a paper towel. Once all the donuts is fried, make cinnamon sugar, mix cinnamon and powdered sugar.

Dip the fried donuts in cinnamon sugar and roll them well.

Now for filling the donuts, take jam or preserve in a microwave safe bowl to warm it slightly. I microwave it for 20 sec.

Now fill a piping bag with the jam. take a donut, make a slit using a knife on the side of the donut. Insert the piping bag and give a good squeeze.

You can roll them on cinnamon sugar second time too.

Serve warm.

re roll the scraps and make more doughnuts
Place these in a floured plate or tray 
cover it with plastic wrap and let it rise again
Look now they are double in size
Heat oil for deep frying
Once it is hot, drop the doughnuts in, dont crowd the pan

Once they are golden on one side, flip them and
cook on other side too
Remove them to a plate
Now for cinnamon sugar, take some powdered
sugar in a bowl, i took regular
 white sugar in a blender and powdered it finely
Add a good amount of cinnamon
mix well
Take a donut and coat them
now all coated
Now for the jelly part, take your fav jam or preserve
 in a microwave safe bowl,
I microwave it for 20 to 30 sec to warm them slightly
I filled a piping bag with this
make a hole using a knife
pipe the jam in
now it is piped

TADA

    @AnonymousIt depends on each climatic condition. In cooler place, it takes longer. In hot place it takes less time.
