- 1/3 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup water
- 2 and 1/2 cup all purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon active dry yeast
- 4 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 3 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup tangzhong
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cup icing sugar
- Blend the flour and water in a small sauce pan, and heat over medium while stirring with a whisk.
- As soon as the mixture thickens, and swirl lines appear, remove from heat and allow to cool.
- This recipe will make double the amount needed for this recipe - it will last in the fridge for up to three days.
- In a small bowl beat the milk with the egg.
- In the bottom of your bread maker pan combine your milk and egg mixture, sugar, salt and butter - cut into pieces.
- Add cooled tangzhong to bread pan.
- Measure out your flour and pour on top of the liquid ingredients.
- Make a small well in the top of the flour, add the yeast into the well.
- Make sure that the yeast doesn't come in contact with the wet ingredients at the bottom of the pan.
- Use your bread machines dough function- allowing the dough to combine, knead and rise.
- Once the dough is done rising, roll out on a floured surface until abouts a 1/2" thick.
- Using your donut cutter, cut out the donuts until you have no dough left.
- You can re roll our the dough one more time, but more than once and I find that the dough gets too tough to work with.
- Place your donuts on a baking sheet with your silpat or parchment paper about 2" apart.
- Cover your baking sheets with clean towels and let rise for 45 minutes.
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Place your baking sheets in the oven and bake for about 6-7 minutes - until lightly golden brown.
- Make sure you dont over bake the donuts - you want them to be light and doughy on the inside.
- Let your donuts cool for 5 minutes unti you're ready to glaze.
- In a small sauce pan over medium heat combine your milk and vanilla.
- Slowly add your icing sugar whisking until the mixture is smooth.
- Remove the glaze from heat and pour into a small bowl.
- To gaze the donuts dip into the glaze and place on a cooling rack over a baking sheet.
- Sprinkle with your sprinkles while the glaze is still wet.
