I feel much better today. Hands were itching to paint the kitchen red! Thought of making bread initially but I didn’t really have all the ingredients required. Mom suggested that I make donuts instead. I know I just made a large batch last weekend, but we didn’t really get to eat ’em since most were savored by the guests.
So I ended up making donuts with a few simple toppings. Nothing chocolaty though coz mom is not a chocolate fan. These turn out really good. Next time, am gonna make donuts with fillings. Like those rich and creamy fillings/toppings from munchy donuts!! Got to figure out how to go abt it though!
Sprinkled with sugar! Simple yet nice!
Glazed with strawberry Jam. I loved these!
Creamy Peanut Butter
Remember these?
Donuts On Sticks!
Back then, these were a favorite especially among kids. We used to pass by this confectionery in our neighborhood just to buy a stick of these 🙂
- 500 g flour
- 250 g lukewarm water
- 2 Tbsp Milk powder
- 50 g sugar
- 45g shortening
- 25 g Butter
- 1 small egg
- 11 g Instant yeast
- 5 g salt
- 5 g bread softener
- 2.5 g baking powder
- 1/2 tbsp Ovalette
- 1 tsp vanilla
- Add dry ingredients in a large bowl/ bread-maker.
- Mix in ovalette and give it a little mix and then add in egg and vanilla.
- Using a mixer, beat it for 1 minute.
- Pour in water till the dough is just combined.
- Mix in shortening and margarine.
- Continue kneading and if more water is needed, just pour enough to form a soft, smooth and elastic dough. Leave the dough to rest till it double up.
- Roll the dough till about 1 – 1.5 cm thick and cut using a donut cutter.
- Sprinkle some flour onto a tray and arrange the donuts.
- Leave to prove till double the size.
- Fry till golden brown
- Coat with either castor sugar, melted cooking chocolate and sprinkle with 100 thousands or vermicelli. Alternatively, you can add any toppings/fillings as desired!
