Ingredients:

• 1 cup whole milk, warmed to 110F 43C
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 1/4 tsp active dry yeast
• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 2 large eggs
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup whole milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions:

Pour the warm milk and powdered sugar into a bowl

After scattering the yeast over the mixture, let it sit until foamy, about five minutes

Flour and salt should be combined in a large mixing bowl

Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and softened butter

Stir the yeast mixture in until a sticky dough forms, about 1 minute

The dough should be smooth and elastic after about five minutes of kneading on a floured surface

After the dough has doubled in size, place it in a bowl that has been greased, cover it with a fresh kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm location for approximately one hour

Roll out the risen dough to a thickness of 1/2 inch after punching it down

Cut out donut shapes with a donut cutter or a glass and a smaller round cutter

Put them on a baking sheet and wrap a towel over them

Give them an additional half-hour to rise

Raise the temperature of the vegetable oil to 350F 175C in a large, deep saucepan

When the oil is hot, carefully add the donuts and fry them for one to two minutes on each side, or until golden brown

Using a slotted spoon, remove and place on paper towels to drain

To make the glaze, whisk together the milk, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar in a separate bowl

Allowing any excess glaze to fall off, dip each donut into the glaze

Transfer to a wire rack to cool

While the yeast doughnuts are still fresh, serve them with a vanilla glaze and enjoy
