Instructions
Coffee Custard
- In a bowl, add in the egg yolks, milk, and strong coffee, Whisk until incorporated.
- In a medium saucepan, add in the sugar, salt, and cornstarch. Whisk until the cornstarch is thoroughly incorporated.
- Pour about 3/4 cup of the egg and milk mixture into the saucepan and whisk until incorporated. Start with a small amount to avoid lumps.
- Add the remaining egg and milk mixture and whisk to combine.
- Add in the butter and turn heat on to medium. Whisk pretty steadily to avoid clumps and burning.
- Once the mixture comes up to a boil, let it boil for 1 minute until it thickens. Whisk constantly while the custard is boiling.
- Immediately run the custard through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl.
- Cover with plastic wrap. Be sure that the plastic wrap sits on the top of the custard to avoid a skin. Place into the fridge to chill.
Donuts
- Dissolve yeast in the ¼ cup warm water. Add a teaspoon of sugar and stir. Let it sit for 10 minutes until foamy. This will mean your yeast is activated.
- In a saucepan, add in the milk, shortening, sugar and salt. Turn on heat to medium/high. Let it come to almost a bubble. Once the milk starts to form bubbles on the outer edge, remove from the heat and let cool to luke warm.
- Add the milk mixture, yeast, mashed potatoes, and beaten eggs into a large mixing bowl. Stir to combine.
- Add in the 5 cups of flour and stir until most of the flour is incorporated. Remove the dough from the bowl onto a clean work surface and work in the rest of the dough. Knead the dough until smooth. It will be a soft dough.
- Place 1 tablespoon of oil into a bowl. Add the dough and roll it into the oil to coat it. Cover with plastic wrap and place in a warm area until doubled. It will take about 1 hour and 30 minutes.
- Lightly flour a clean surface. Turn the dough out onto the the floured surface and roll out to about ½ inch thickness. Cut with 3 or 4 inch round cookie cutter.
- Place the cut out donuts onto two cookie sheets that have been greased with non-stick cooking spray. I normally lay a piece of parchment paper down onto the cookie sheet and then spray that with non-stick cooking spray. The parchment paper isn’t necessary.
- Cover the donuts with the plastic wrap and let it rise until doubled. This will take about 30 minutes.
- While the donuts are rising for the second time, add the 3 cups of oil into a large saucepan and let it heat to 350 degrees.
- Once the donuts are doubled and the oil is up to temperature, add 1 to 2 donuts into the oil. Let the donuts fry for about 2 minutes until golden brown. Flip and let fry for another minute to two minutes until that side is golden brown.
- Remove from the oil and place on a wire rack to drain.
- Place the granulated sugar and cinnamon in a storage bag or paper bag.
- Toss the warm donuts into the cinnamon and sugar.
- Add the # 230 Bismarck Metal Tip in a large disposable piping bag. Fill the bag with the coffee custard.
- Pipe the custard into the center of the donuts. Fill until the centers of the donuts puff out slightly.
- Best if ate fresh.
Notes
- Serve: This fried donuts are best consumed the day of being made.
- Storage: If you need to store these, which I should add that I don’t recommend, they need to be placed in the refrigerator because of the coffee custard filling.
