Instructions

  1. In a large bowl (or stand mixer), combine the eggs, milk, flour, sugar, softened butter, salt, yeast and honey.
  2. Knead until the dough is smooth, soft and elastic.
  3. Shape into a ball, place in a lightly oiled bowl, cover and let rise 2 hours, or until doubled.
  4. Gently deflate the dough and divide into 60 g pieces.
  5. Shape each piece into a smooth ball, poke a hole in the centre with your finger and gently stretch into a ring.
  6. Place the rings on a parchment-lined baking sheet, cover and let rise 40 minutes, until puffed but not over-proofed.
  7. Heat the oil to 320°F (160°C).
  8. Fry a few rings at a time, turning gently, until golden. Drain on paper towels.
  9. Roll the warm donuts in granulated sugar.
