Eggless Doughnuts

Absolutely awesomelicious. Yum, my mouth’s still watering.

Servings –  24-26 NumbersDoughnuts

Ingredients

4 cups All purpose flour

2 tsp Yeast

100 Gms Butter

1 cup Milk

4-5 tbsp Sugar

1-2 tsp Salt

1-2 tsp Oil for greasing hands

Oil for frying

Caster Sugar for Dusting

Method

  1. To warm milk, add the butter and stir till melted.
  2. In a bowl, add in all the dry ingredients and knead well to a dough,with the addition of milk-butter mix.
  3. Add water if required to knead well to make a soft and loose dough. ( Not too watery, but sticky is the right consistency).
  4. Grease your palm with little oil and knead the dough well for about 5-10 minutes.  Cover and allow the dough to rest and rise for about 2 hours.
  5.  After two hours, knead it once again and then squeeze medium lemon size balls from the main dough.
  6. Flatten them a little and then using a cutter or anything else sharp you could cut them to perfect circle. ( I used  a glass) If you are an expert , you could round it with your greased palm itself.
  7. . Make a hold in the center with your little finger and just expand it.
  8. . In a deep frying pan, heat oil  and then fry each doughnut, without burning them.
  9. . Garnish them with castor sugar.

Tips – This dough could be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator for about a week.

– Bring it to room temperature , before you start frying them.

– For adding any frosting, the doughnuts needs to be completely
