Ingredients

For the Donuts

• 1 cup and 10 tablespoons of flour
• 2.5 tablespoons of sugar
• 1/3 teaspoon of salt
• 1 teaspoon of yeast
• 1 egg
• 1/2 cup of milk
• 1/8 cup of butter, melted

For the Glaze

• 1/2 cup of powdered sugar
• 1 tablespoon of warm water

Instructions

Step 1: Mix the Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, salt, and yeast. Mix all the dry ingredients together until well combined.

Step 2: Add the Wet Ingredients

Next, add the egg, milk, and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix until the dough is well combined. Cover the bowl with cling wrap.

Step 3: Let the Dough Rise

Set the bowl with the dough aside and leave it at room temperature for about an hour. This allows the dough to rise.

Step 4: Prepare the Dough for Frying

After an hour, transfer the mixture to a piping bag.

Step 5: Heat the Oil

Place a pot over medium heat and add a generous amount of cooking oil. Heat the oil until it reaches frying temperature (around 350°F or 175°C).

Step 6: Fry the Donuts

Squeeze the batter from the piping bag into the hot oil, cutting the dough with a pair of clean scissors to form small balls. Fry until the donuts are brown and crispy. Remove them from the oil and drain excess oil on a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Step 7: Make the Glaze

In a small bowl, combine the powdered sugar and warm water. Mix until smooth to form the glaze.

Step 8: Glaze the Donuts

Spread the glaze over the bubble donuts while they are still hot. Allow the glaze to set slightly before serving.

Tips

• Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature to avoid greasy or undercooked donuts.
