There isn’t much you can do better in life than making some fresh doughnuts and just sitting down and demolishing them all in one go. Well, gym addicts may disagree with me but I will quite happily take the hit. When I made these I couldn’t get enough of how fluffy they were. This is a divine Thermomix recipe and makes a good breakfast or just afternoon tea treat. If you prefer to fill your custard doughnuts with jam you can do that too or just leave them plain which is Jesse’s favourite.
In this recipe I make good use of my dough scraper because you will need it to combat the slightly sticky nature of the dough. It is almost a bit like a brioche dough.
Place the milk, sugar and yeast to the mixing bowl and heat 2 Min. / 37°C / Speed 2.
Add the butter, flour, salt and eggs and knead 2 Min. / Kneading Function.
Cover the dough and leave to rise for 1-2 hours until doubled in size.
