Homemade Donuts Recipe with Vanilla Glaze

Instructions:

1. Mix 240ml warm milk with 50g sugar and 7g yeast. Wait 5-10 mins until it looks foamy and smells like bread.
2. Add 75g melted butter and 1 large egg to the yeast mixture. Whisk until the yellow streaks of egg disappear.
3. Stir in 500g all purpose flour, 5g salt, and 1g nutmeg. Start with a spoon, then move to your hands once it gets shaggy.
4. Work the dough on a floured surface for 8-10 mins. Knead until it feels smooth and elastic like a stress ball.
5. Place dough in a greased bowl and cover with a damp cloth. Wait 1 hour 30 mins until it has doubled in size.
6. Roll dough out to 1.5cm thickness and cut using your donut cutter. Don't forget to keep the donut holes for frying later!
7. Let the cut rings sit on parchment paper for 45 mins. They should look puffy and feel very delicate.
8. Heat 1L oil in a heavy pot to 350°F (180°C). Use a thermometer to be certain of the heat.
9. Carefully drop 2-3 donuts into the oil for 1-2 mins per side. Fry until they are deep golden and sizzle gently.
10. Whisk 360g powdered sugar, 60ml milk, and 5ml vanilla, then dip warm donuts. Dip while warm so the glaze sets into a thin shell.
