  • 1/2 cup warm whole milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Oil for frying

Instructions:

  1. Start by mixing together flour, sugar, yeast and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Now add in the eggs, melted butter, warm milk and vanilla into the bowl and mix everything well until the dough is well combined.
  3. Place the dough onto a floured surface and knead it for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
  4. After kneading, place the dough in a large greased bowl and cover it with cling wrap. Allow it to sit for approximately 1 hour at room temperature.
  5. Next, take the dough out and roll it into a rectangular shape until it is approximately 1 inch thick.
  6. Use a round cookie cutter or cup to cut the dough into small circles.
  7. Fill the donut holes with Nutella or any desired filling and place the cut-out donuts onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  8. Cover the baking sheet with a cling wrap and allow the donuts to sit and rise for another 30 minutes.
  9. Preheat the oil to 325°F in a deep frying pan.
  10. Carefully place the donuts into the hot oil and fry them for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side or until they become golden brown in color.
  11. Once cooked, remove the donuts from the oil and place them onto a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
