Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, chopped
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 3–4 tbsp strawberry puree
- 1–2 tbsp milk (for glaze)
- Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
-
Prepare the Donuts: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder. In another bowl, mix the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Combine the wet and dry ingredients, mixing until smooth.
-
Shape the Donuts: On a floured surface, roll out the dough to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a donut cutter to shape the dough into donuts.
-
Fry the Donuts: Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (180°C). Carefully place the donuts in the oil and fry for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
-
Prepare the Strawberry Glaze: In a bowl, mix the powdered sugar with strawberry puree. Add milk gradually until you reach the desired consistency for the glaze. Stir in the chopped strawberries.
-
Glaze the Donuts: Dip each donut into the strawberry glaze, ensuring it’s evenly coated. Place glazed donuts on a wire rack to set.
Notes
- Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature to avoid greasy donuts.
- For a thicker glaze, use less milk.
- Let the donuts cool slightly before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting off.
- Enhance the glaze with a pinch of salt for extra flavor contrast.
