Instructions

Make the Dough

  • Whisk the yeast, warm water, and sugar. If using liquid milk, whisk it with yeast and sugar. Then let it proof for 5-10 minutes till it's foamy at the top.
  • Add the flour, powdered milk (if using), eggs, salt, vanilla, and the yeast mixture in a stand mixing bowl. You can mix manually if you don't own a stand mixer.
  • Mix on low speed for 2 minutes until the dough forms a ball.
  • Add the softened butter and mix again for 5-7 minutes until the dough is slightly sticky.

Let the Dough Proof

  • Lightly grease a bowl with oil and place the dough inside. Rub some oil on the dough so it dosen't dry or crusty.
  • Cover and let it rise for 1 hour 30 minutes.

Shape Donuts

  • Cut parchment paper into 12 x 12 sizes and place it on the working surface. Sprinkle some flour on it so that the dough balls don't stick.
  • Punch the dough to release trapped air bubbles.
  • Divide the dough into 10-12 portions and roll each portion to form a ball.
  • Place each ball on each parchment paper.
  • Cover with a cloth and let it proof again for 45 minutes.

Fry the Donuts

  • Add oil to a deep pot or pan over medium heat. You can use a thermometer to reach 375℉.
  • Add 2-3 donuts at a time and fry for 1 minute each side till golden brown. DO NOT OVER CROWD THE PAN.
  • Remove the donuts and place them on absorbent paper.

To make the Milky Filling

  • Combine the powdered, evaporated and condensed milk and mix well until smooth.
  • Transfer the mixture into a piping bag.
  • Using a knife, poke a hole in the side of each doughnut and fill it with the milk filling.
  • Serve as soon as they are filled because the milk may become harder inside the donuts.
