Description
Soft, homemade cream doughnuts filled with jam and whipped cream. Easy to make and irresistibly fluffy for breakfast or dessert.
Ingredients
- 3 1/2 cups cake flour
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 50 ml sugar
- 1 packet (10 g) yeast
- 60 g melted butter or margarine
- 1 extra-large egg, lightly beaten
- 150 ml lukewarm milk
- 50 ml lukewarm water
- Jam (for filling)
- Whipped cream (for filling)
- Icing sugar (for sprinkling)
- 12 maraschino cherries (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine 3 1/2 cups cake flour, 1/2 tsp salt, 50 ml sugar, and 1 packet (10 g) yeast.
- Add 60 g melted butter, 150 ml lukewarm milk, and 50 ml lukewarm water. Mix until it forms a sticky dough.
- Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Place dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover with greased cling wrap, and let it rise for 15 mins.
- Punch down the dough, divide it into 12 equal pieces.
- Shape each piece into a long log by rubbing gently between oiled hands.
- Let the shaped doughnuts rise again until doubled in size, roughly 30–45 minutes.
- Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat.
- Fry doughnuts until golden brown, turning gently.
- Remove and drain on paper towels.
- Once cooled, slice each doughnut down the middle, spread a line of jam, pipe in whipped cream, top with a cherry, and sprinkle with icing sugar.
Tip: Keep an eye on your oil temperature; too hot will brown them too fast and leave the inside doughy.
