Instructions

  1. Fill a deep skillet with 2 inches of oil and preheat to 350°F.
  2. For Pudding: Place milk, sugar and cornstarch in a saucepan. Stir over medium heat and bring to a simmer. Once mixture has thickened, quickly whisk ⅓ cup of the mixture into the lightly beaten egg, then whisk the mixture back into the saucepan. Lower heat to low and cook for 2 to 3 minutes until mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon.
  3. Remove the mixture from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients. Place mixture over an ice bath and allow pudding to cool completely, about 1 hour. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  4. For Doughnuts: Whisk together the shortening, sugar and egg yolk until well combined.
  5. In another bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon Alternate adding the flour mixture and milk to the yolk mixture until dough has just formed.

  8. Carefully drop 4 to 5 doughnuts at a time into the oil and fry for 1 ½ to 2 minutes, flipping the doughnuts after a minute.
  9. Drain on paper towels and repeat until all the doughnuts have been made. (at this time you can re-roll the scraps to make more doughnuts).
  10. To assemble: Scoop Pudding into a piping bag fitting with a small piping tip. Insert the piping tip into the side of each doughnut and fill with about 1 tablespoon of pudding. Repeat until all doughnuts have been filled.
