Ingredients
for the doughnuts
- ¼ cup water
- 3 tbsp butter
- ½ cup milk
- 3 cups flour
- ¼ cup caster sugar
- salt pinch
- 2 tsp (7g) yeast dry
- 1 egg
- oil for frying
for the glaze
- 3 cups icing sugar
- lemon juice and zest of 1/2
- 3-4 tablespoons water boiling
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 the doughnuts to your preference. Place on a floured surface and cover with a damp tea towel and allow to rise for another hour.
- In the meantime, make the glaze. Combine all the ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth. Place in a jug and press a piece of cling wrap to the surface. This will prevent the glaze from forming a skin.
- Heat the oil in a large pot. Carefully add 2-3 doughnuts to the hot oil at a time. Immediately flip the doughnuts when they are in the oil. This will allow them to rise more. Fry until the doughnuts are cooked through and golden brown on both sides.
- Remove from the oil and drain on kitchen paper before pouring over the glaze.
- Allow to cool then serve.
