Preparation Steps
1
Warm the milk slightly, crumble in the yeast, add one teaspoon of sugar, and let it stand for 10 minutes until foamy.
2
In a large bowl, combine the flour, the 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 it becomes smooth and elastic. If necessary, add a little more flour or milk to achieve the right consistency.
4
Cover with a kitchen towel and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until the dough has doubled in size.
5
On a 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 another 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 they are nicely golden brown. Remove them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
9
Let the doughnuts cool completely. Then, using a piping bag, fill the doughnuts with peanut butter.
10
Dust the doughnuts with powdered sugar and serve them fresh and warm for the best taste experience.
