INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 1/4 teaspoons (1 packet) active dry yeast
  • 1/4 cup lukewarm water (105°F to 115°F)
  • 1 1/2 cups whole milk, warm
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 5 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
  • Canola oil, for frying
  • Sugar, for coating the donuts
  • 1 (18-ounce) jar raspberry preserves or jelly (seedless jam or preserves)

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the yeast and warm water. Let stand for 5 minutes, until the yeast is foamy.
  2. Add the milk, sugar, honey, eggs, flour, salt, and butter to the yeast mixture. Beat with a mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment on low speed until combined. Increase the speed to medium and beat until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
  3. Grease a large bowl with oil. Place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat all sides with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  4. Punch down the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll out the dough to a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Cut out 2-inch circles with a donut cutter. Place the donuts on a lightly greased baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a warm place for 30 minutes.
  5. Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat to 350°F. Fry the donuts in batches for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the donuts from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  6. While the donuts are still warm, roll them in the sugar to coat.
  7. To fill the donuts, use a pastry bag fitted with a small round tip to insert a dollop of jelly into the center of each donut. You can also use a teaspoon to fill the donuts, but be careful not to overfill them.
  8. Serve the donuts immediately and enjoy!


TIPS:

  • For a more flavorful jelly, make your own using fresh fruit.
  • If you don't have a donut cutter, you can use a biscuit cutter or a glass to cut out the circles.
  • To make sure the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of dough into the oil. If it sizzles and immediately rises to the top, the oil is ready.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pot when frying the donuts. Leave enough space between the donuts so that they can cook evenly.
  • If the donuts are too hot to handle when you first take them out of the oil, let them cool for a few minutes before rolling them in the sugar.
Enjoy! 😋😋
