Preparation Steps
1
Warm the milk slightly, crumble in the yeast, add a teaspoon of sugar, and let it stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
2
In a large bowl, combine the flour, remaining sugar, and salt. Pour in the proofed yeast mixture, melted butter, and eggs. Start kneading the dough.
3
Knead the dough thoroughly for 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. If necessary, add a little more flour or milk to achieve the right consistency.
4
Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
5
On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1 cm thickness. Use a glass or doughnut cutter to cut out circles.
6
Let the doughnuts rise for an additional 30 minutes to make them even lighter during frying.
7
In a deep skillet or pot, heat the oil to 340-355°F (170-180°C). Fry only a few doughnuts at a time to maintain the oil temperature.
8
Fry the doughnuts for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
9
Let the doughnuts cool completely. Fill a piping bag with the almond cream and carefully fill the inside of the doughnuts.
10
Melt the white chocolate over a double boiler, then dip the top of each doughnut into the melted chocolate. Sprinkle with chopped almonds.
11
Let the coating set, then serve fresh, dusted with powdered sugar.
