Method
- In a large mixing bowl mix together the yeast, one tablespoon of the sugar and the warm water.
- Leave in a warm place for the yeast to activate and become foamy.
- Carefully add your milk and then the butter, sifted flour, egg and sugar and mix with a wooden spoon until a sticky dough forms.
- Knead lightly and place the dough in an oiled bowl in a warm place for 30 minutes or until the dough has doubled in size.
- Remove the dough from the bowl and knead lightly until it becomes elastic (just a few minutes).
- Roll out the dough to just under 2cm thick and cut out rounds (5cm is perfect).
- Place the rounds on a lined baking tray in a warm place to rise again for approximately 3o minutes (make sure you space out the doughnuts on the tray).
- Heat the canola oil and cook the doughnuts two at a time until golden - turning half way.
- Drain on a paper towel.
- Using a piping set, insert the nozzle into the centre of the doughnut and squirt some jam into the middle.
- Dust with icing sugar and serve piping hot immediately!
