Healthy donuts

Donuts are so common nowadays that we don’t even think that it could be done in the warmth of our homes. This is a huge mistake to make though.

As I currently have some time, I had been surfing on the internet last week. Attempting to find fresh, stirring tips, inspirational meals that I’ve never tasted before, to delight my family with. Hunting for quite some time unfortunately couldn’t find lots of interesting things. Right before I wanted to give up on it, I stumbled on this fabulous and easy treat by luck at Suncakemom. It looked so delightful on its image, that required rapid actions.

It absolutely was not so difficult to imagine the way it is created, its taste and how much my hubby will enjoy it. Actually, it is quite simple to please him in terms of desserts. Yes, I’m a lucky one. Or possibly he is.Anyway, I got into the page and followed the simple instuctions that had been coupled with wonderful photographs of the method. It just makes life faster and easier. I could imagine that it’s a bit of a hassle to take photos in the midst of baking in the kitchen because you most often have sticky hands so I sincerely appreciate the time and effort she devote for making this post and recipe easily followed.

With that said I am inspired to present my own, personal dishes in the same way. Appreciate your the thought.

I had been tweaking the initial mixture to make it for the taste of my loved ones. I have to mention it absolutely was an incredible success. They enjoyed the flavor, the overall look and loved having a sweet like this in the middle of a stressful workweek. They quite simply demanded even more, a lot more. Thus the next occasion I’m not going to commit the same mistake. I am likely to double the quantity to keep them delighted.

The origanal Healthy donuts recipe is from SunCakeMom

Add yeast to half of the lukewarm milk or water and stir it well. Allow it to sit for five minutes. If it starts to bubble don’t worry it’s only the yeast working and it’s completely normal.

Separate egg whites from yolks.

Beat egg whites until hard peaks form.

Put flour, egg yolks, butter and the rest of the milk into a big bowl. Pour in the milk and yeast mixture too. Knead until the dough comes together. We are after a fairly soft dough so don’t worry if it sticks to the wall of the bowl here and there.

Add the egg whites into the dough too then place the dough in a lightly floured bowl, cover and leave it in a warm place for half an hour to rise.

Turn out the dough on to a floured surface

Roll it out to about 1 finger thick.

Use a donuts cutter or a cup to cut out our special homemade doughnuts.

Transfer them to a lightly-floured, flat surface that is in a draft-free, warm spot. Cover the donuts lightly with tea towels and leave them rise for another half an hour.

Fill frying pan with oil and heat until sizzles. Be patient and don’t try to put doughnut into the oil before it’s not hot enough. Also if the oil is too hot the dough won’t rise as much as it could and we end up with much denser results. We have to test the kitchen for this but if we have six temperature settings on the cooker then starting on the third is a great start. Try the oil by dropping a little leftover dough in there. If it sizzles and rises immediately to the surface, the oil is ready.

Carefully place donuts upside down into the frying pan. Use a spatula to pick up the dough to avoid any sticking to the kitchen counter.

Put the lid on top! They should float to the top and puff up.

After about a minute check the bottom for golden brown color. If it’s done flip them over to the other side and don’t put the lid back.

Remove them from the oil as soon as they’re golden brown on both sides.

Place donuts on paper kitchen-towels to cool and drain. If we can see the whitish stripe in the middle then we have a nice and fluffy donuts. No stripes no fluffiness.
