Homemade Donut Mix
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons of melted butter
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil for frying
- 1/2 cup of powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup of granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground nutmeg.
- In a separate bowl, mix 1/2 cup of milk, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons of melted butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out to 1/2 inch thickness. Use a donut cutter to cut out donut shapes. Re-roll any remaining dough and continue cutting until all the dough is used.
- In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat 2 inches of vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Carefully add the donuts to the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes per side.
- Remove the donuts from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain and cool slightly.
- While still warm, dust the donuts with powdered sugar. Serve and enjoy!
Donut mix has a rich history dating back to the early 19th century when Dutch settlers brought their olykoeks, or "oily cakes," to America. The donut mix as we know it today became popular in the 1930s when it was introduced by a renowned chef in New York City. This versatile mix quickly gained popularity in restaurants and homes across the country, allowing for easy and consistent donut production. Today, the best donut mix can be found in artisanal bakeries and specialty shops, where chefs carefully blend high-quality ingredients to create the perfect balance of flavor and texture. The key to a great donut mix lies in the quality of the flour, leavening agents, and flavorings used. For a unique twist, some chefs incorporate alternative ingredients such as matcha, pumpkin, or even bacon to create innovative and delicious donut flavors.
