Yield 40 doughnuts

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon sugar plus 1/3 cup
1 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
1 egg
1/4 cup water
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 tablespoons butter, melted
Vegetable oil, for frying
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • Make the Doughnuts: In a small saucepan, warm the milk slightly with 1 teaspoon sugar. Add the yeast and let sit for 5 minutes to proof.
  • In a small bowl, beat the egg with the water.
  • In a standing mixer with a paddle attachment mix the flour, remaining 1/3 cup sugar, salt, and nutmeg. Add the proofed yeast mixture, beaten egg mixture, and melted butter. Remove the paddle, switch to a dough hook, and mix until well-blended and kneaded, about 15 minutes. Transfer the dough to a large greased mixing bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and chill overnight.
  • On a floured surface, roll the dough out to about 1/4-inch thick and transfer to a sheet pan. Cover with plastic wrap, and chill for 30 minutes, allowing the dough to rest.
  • Cut dough into 1 1/2-inch squares. Line a sheet pan with a buttered sheet of parchment paper. Arrange the dough squares 1/2-inch apart on the sheet pan and cover with another sheet of buttered parchment. Place in a warm place to rise about 30 minutes.
  • Make the Coating: In a small bowl, combine the sugar and cinnamon to coat doughnuts.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot to 375 degrees F and fry the doughnuts for 1 to 2 minutes on each side. While doughnuts are still warm, toss them in the cinnamon sugar, to coat.

I'm a bit worried that these doughnuts might be too sweet for my taste.

I was a bit skeptical about the cinnamon sugar coating, but it was actually really good. It added a nice crunch and sweetness to the doughnuts.

These were so easy to make! I'm not a very experienced baker, but I was able to follow the recipe easily and the doughnuts turned out perfectly.

I love the way these doughnuts turned out! They're so pretty and festive, and they taste even better than they look.

These doughnuts were a hit with my family! They were light and fluffy, with just the right amount of cinnamon sugar. I'll definitely be making them again.
