cook time

Ingredients
Dough
- 1/3 cup milk, warm
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp active dry or instant yeast
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- pinch of salt
- 1 tbsp salted butter, softened
Glaze
- 1 cup icing sugar
- 2-3 tbsp milk
- 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
More
- 2 tbsp milk, to brush before baking
- 1 tbsp butter, to brush after baking
Equipment
Instructions:
- In a bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, vanilla and active dry yeast. Give everything a good mix and let it sit for 5–10 minutes or till the yeast is foamy and active.
- In another bowl, add all purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Pour in the yeast mixture and mix with a spatula or chopsticks until a shaggy dough forms and most of the flour is incorporated.
- Add the softened butter and knead till you have a soft and elastic dough. The dough should not be sticky but it should feel slightly tacky to the touch.
- Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover and let it proof in a warm spot for 90-120 minutes or until doubled in size.
-
Punch down the dough and transfer it to a lightly floured surface. Roll it out into a thin but not too thin sheet and using a round cutter, bowl or lid, cut out circles. Use a piping tip or bottle cap to cut out the centre of each doughnut.
Note: Gather any dough scraps, gently knead them back together, roll the dough out again and repeat the cutting process till all the dough has been used. - Transfer the doughnuts to the parchment lined airfryer tin and cover loosely. Let them proof for another 30 minutes till puffy.
- Brush the proofed doughnuts with milk and airfry at 170°C for 7–10 minutes till golden brown or bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for 11–13 minutes.
- Remove the doughnuts from the airfryer and immediately brush them with melted butter and let them cool slightly.
- For the glaze: In a bowl, whisk together icing sugar, milk and vanilla extract till smooth and thick.
- Dip each doughnut into the glaze, letting excess drip off. Place them on a wire rack and let the glaze set. Once set, enjoyy!

These were so so good! I’ve already made them twice, once in the airfryer and once in the oven. Both were good, but the ones in the airfryer were a little bit more fluffy. Also, I added some extra flour (180>120 gr) to get the rigth consistency. 100% recommend!!
Best recipe. I’ve made the donuts using this recipe and they turned out so delicious and well made for the first trial too. Thank you for the recipe
soooo good!!!
