Preparation time: 25 minutes Rising time: 2 hours Baking time: 15 minutes Total: 2 hours and 40 minutes Number of servings: 25 doughnuts Ingredients - 500 g white bread flour - 500 g white flour - 60 g fresh yeast (or 3 heaping tablespoons of dry yeast) - ½ cup brown sugar - 1 + 1/3 cups cold water - ¼ cup oil - 1 packet vanilla sugar - 1 teaspoon vanilla essence - 3 large eggs or 4 medium-sized ones - Zest of ¼ orange - Zest of 1 lemon For the filling: - Strawberry jam or another preferred jam - Nutella or vanilla cream (optional) For decoration: - Powdered sugar - Melted chocolate or sprinkles (optional) Preparation 1. Preparing the dough Start by adding the flours, yeast, sugar, oil, and a pinch of salt to the bowl of a stand mixer. This is the moment when the flavors of the ingredients combine, so make sure the yeast is well distributed in the flour to activate fermentation. 2. Adding wet ingredients Begin to mix the dry ingredients, then gradually add the eggs, cold water, and spices (orange and lemon zest, vanilla essence). Knead the dough for 10-12 minutes. The dough should be slightly sticky but hold its shape. If it is too wet, you can add a little more flour, but be careful not to dry it out. 3. Rising the dough Once you have a homogeneous dough, transfer it to a clean bowl sprinkled with a little flour. Cover it with a damp towel and let it rise for about an hour, or until it doubles in size. This is an ideal time to relax and mentally prepare for the delicious doughnuts to come! 4. Shaping the doughnuts After the dough has risen, place it on a floured surface. Divide it into 25 equal portions, forming small balls. Gently round them and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper, leaving space between them. Cover them with a towel and let them rise for another hour. 5. Baking the doughnuts Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Once the doughnuts have risen, bake them for 15 minutes or until they are golden and fluffy. The aroma that will fill your kitchen is simply irresistible! 6. Filling the doughnuts Once the doughnuts have cooled slightly, use a kitchen syringe or piping bag to inject the soft jam into each doughnut. If you prefer a more decadent version, you can use Nutella or vanilla cream. 7. Decorating Finally, sprinkle powdered sugar over the doughnuts for an elegant look. If you want to add more flavor, you can dip them in melted chocolate or decorate them with colorful sprinkles. Chef's tip For an extra flavor boost, you can experiment with different types of jams. For example, peach or raspberry jam adds an interesting note. You can also adapt the recipe using whole wheat flour for a healthier option, but keep in mind that the texture may be different. Nutritional benefits Baked doughnuts are a healthier alternative to fried ones, having a lower fat content. Additionally, the ingredients used, such as eggs and oil, contribute to the intake of proteins and essential fatty acids. Frequently asked questions 1. Can I use dry yeast? Yes, we recommend using 3 heaping tablespoons of dry yeast that do not require prior dissolution. 2. Can I freeze the doughnuts? Yes, baked doughnuts can be frozen. Make sure to let them cool completely before wrapping them in plastic wrap. 3. Can they be adapted for vegans? Yes, you can replace the eggs with a mixture of ground flaxseeds with water or banana puree. Also, use a vegetable oil instead of butter. Serving recommendations These baked doughnuts are excellent served warm alongside a cup of tea or coffee. You can create a small brunch with your friends by adding a fresh salad or a cheese platter for a delicious contrast. In conclusion, these baked doughnuts filled with jam are a wonderful choice for any occasion. With a fluffy texture and delicious filling, they are sure to become a favorite in your family. So get ready to enjoy this culinary experience and bon appétit!
