  • 55g (1/4 cup) caster sugar
  • 3 teaspoons dried yeast
  • Pinch of salt

  • 3 egg yolks
  • Canola oil, to deep-fry
  • 215g (1 cup) caster sugar, extra
  • 2 teaspoons Masterfoods Ground Cinnamon

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1

Combine flour, sugar, yeast and salt in a bowl. Make a well. Mix in milk, butter and egg until dough starts to come together – it may be sticky.

Step 2

Knead on a well-floured surface until smooth. Place in a greased bowl. Cover. Prove for 1 1/2 hours or until dough has doubled in size.

Step 3

Punch down the dough. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 2 minutes or until smooth. Roll out dough until 1cm thick. Rest dough for 2 minutes.

Step 4

Use an 8cm round cutter to cut out discs. Use a 3.5cm round cutter to cut out centres. Place on a lined tray. Set aside for 15 minutes to rise slightly.

Step 5

Combine extra sugar and cinnamon on a tray. Heat oil to 180°C. Deep-fry 4-5 doughnuts for 40 seconds each side or until puffed and golden.

Step 6

Transfer the doughnuts to the sugar mixture and turn to coat. Repeat, in 3 more batches, with remaining doughnuts.
