Ingredients

Method

1.

Combine sifted flours, yeast and sugar in a large bowl.

2.

Beat eggs, butter, vanilla and 1 cup (250ml) of milk in a large bowl of electric mixer, on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add remaining milk and the flour mixture, 1 cup at a time, beating until combined and smooth.

3.

Spoon mixture into a large piping bag fitted with a plain 2cm (¾-inch) piping tube.

4.

Pipe mixture onto baking-paper-lined oven trays, into 7cm (2¾-inch) circles. Spray doughnuts with cooking oil spray. Cover with plastic wrap; stand in a warm place for 40 minutes or until doubled in size.

5.

Heat oil in a large, deep frying pan to 180°C/350°F. Using a pair of scissors; cut the baking paper into squares around the doughnuts. Pick up the doughnuts with baking paper and gently place, one at a time, upside-down into the hot oil (baking paper will fall off as the doughnut cooks, remove baking paper from oil with tongs). Cook for 3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove from oil using a slotted spoon; drain on paper towel.

6.

Toss hot doughnuts in combined cinnamon and extra sugar; serve immediately.

Use a deep-frying thermometer to get an accurate temperature when frying. Doughnuts are best eaten just after they are cooked. They will firm on standing, so microwave on HIGH (100%) in 10-second burst until warm and soft.
