Number Of Ingredients 11

1 recipe - 3 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
1.2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 recipe (for frying) canola oil
10 slices white bread
1 recipe jam, strawberry or any flavor
1 recipe (for dusting) confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • In a bowl, stir together eggs, milk, vanilla, and sugar until well blended and sugar is dissolved. In a separate bowl, mix flour with baking powder and salt.
  • Gradually stir flour mixture into egg mixture until no lumps remain. Set aside.
  • Heat oil in deep-fryer to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Make sandwiches with the bread, spreading jam evenly in the center. Trim away crusts, and cut each sandwich into quarters, wiping away any excess jam. Dip each quarter into batter, coating completely.

  • Serve warm.

Tips:

  • Before you start making the doughnuts, make sure you have all the necessary ingredients and equipment. This will help you avoid any delays or problems during the process.
  • Make sure the yeast is active before using it. You can check this by mixing it with warm water and sugar. If it bubbles up after a few minutes, it's active and ready to use.
  • When kneading the dough, be sure to do so on a lightly floured surface. This will prevent the dough from sticking.
  • Don't over-knead the dough. Over-kneading can make the doughnuts tough.
  • When cutting out the doughnuts, use a sharp knife or biscuit cutter. This will help you get clean, even cuts.
  • When frying the doughnuts, be sure to use a deep fryer or a large pot filled with oil. This will help the doughnuts cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot when frying the doughnuts. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the doughnuts to cook unevenly.
  • When the doughnuts are finished frying, drain them on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
  • Serve the doughnuts warm with your favorite toppings, such as powdered sugar, cinnamon sugar, or glaze.

Conclusion:

These doughnuts are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of doughnuts that are sure to satisfy your sweet tooth. So next time you're looking for a fun and easy baking project, give these doughnuts a try. You won't be disappointed!
