Ingredients
for the doughnuts
- ¼ cup water
- 3 tbsp butter
- ½ cup milk
- 3 cups flour
- ¼ cup caster sugar
- pinch of salt
- 2 tsp (7g) dry yeast
- 1 egg
- oil, for frying
for the chocolate espresso ganache
- 200 g dark chocolate
- 50 ml espresso
- 50 ml cream
For the cinnamon sugar
- 1 cup caster sugar
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Heat together the water, butter and milk until the butter has melted.
- In a separate bowl (or the bowl of a stand mixer), mix together the flour, caster sugar, salt and yeast.
- Pour the warm butter mixture into the flour and add the egg.
- Stir to combine and knead for 5-8 minutes until the dough is smooth and soft. If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour.
- Place in a clean bowl and cover with a damp tea towel. Allow to rise for 1 hour
- Roll out the dough and cut out "holes" (circles). Cover with a damp tea towel and allow to rise while you heat the oil. Fry until golden brown and cooked through.
- To make the ganache, melt together the chocolate, cream and espresso in a double boiler until smooth.
- Remove from the oil and drain on kitchen paper before covering in cinnamon sugar.
- Serve the doughnuts with the ganache for dipping.
Notes
- I often just make doughnut holes out of the holes I cut from regular doughnuts but feel free to use the entire amount of dough for doughnut holes.
