Hello my friends!
It’s Shrove Tuesday and that means we’re making donuts today! But not any kind of donut… See for yourself!
Intrigued by the way to make my lovely flower donuts? Then my recipe is right there for you…
Let’s see the recipe, Chef!
Flower Donuts
Ingredients
- Donuts
- 450 g flour
- 1 tablespoon of salt (9 g)
- 8 g yeast powder or 15 g fresh yeast
- 45 g sugar
- 225 g eggs (5 medium size)
- 35 g milk
- 185 g butter at room temperature
- Frying oil
- Decoration
- Sugar
- Jam
Instructions
Donuts
Combine the yeast with the lukewarm milk in a small bowl.
Pour the flour, salt and sugar on your food processor bowl. Add the milk+yeast and knead at low speed.
Add the eggs one by one, wait until each egg is well mixed with the batter before adding the next one.
When your batter doesn't stick to the bowl anymore, add the butter cut in small pieces.
Stop kneading when you have a smooth dough. Cover with a cling film and let rise for 2 hours. It should get twice as big.
After this time, remove the dough from the bowl, make 12 dough balls.
Set aside 20 to 30 minutes in your fridge.
Spread each of them into a 9-10 cm disc with a rolling pin.
Make 8 cuts (as shown on my photos) and press the extremities in order to male petals. Press the center with your finger.
Place each flower donut on a 15 cm square parchment paper. Set aside 1 hour at room temperature.
Preheat the oil in a large frying pan.
Cook for 2 minutes on each side.
Place the flower donuts on absorbing paper to remove as much oil as possible.
Decoration
Roll the flower donuts in the sugar. Add jam in the center.
It's ready! Enjoy!
