Twisted Donuts 🍩✨

  1. Activate Yeast:
    In a bowl, mix warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes until foamy.

  2. Prepare the Dough:
    Add egg, butter, and salt to the yeast mixture. Mix well. Slowly add flour and knead until the dough is smooth and stretchy.

  3. First Rise:
    Cover the dough and let it rise for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

  4. Shape the Donuts:
    Punch down the dough and divide into 10–12 pieces. Roll each piece into a rope and twist two ropes together. Pinch the ends to secure.

  5. Second Rise:
    Let the twisted donuts rest for 30 minutes.

  6. Fry the Donuts:
    Heat oil over medium heat. Fry the donuts until golden brown on both sides.

  7. Coat and Serve:
    Roll the hot donuts in sugar or cinnamon sugar. Serve warm and enjoy!
