Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 cup water
1/2 cup whole milk
8 Tbsp unsalted butter
1 tsp granulated sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
4 large eggs (room temperature)
oil for frying (such as peanut oil or vegetable oil)
1/4 cup confectioners sugar (to dust)

Steps:

  • In a large 3-quart saucepan, combine water, milk, butter, granulated sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.
  • Remove from heat and stir in 1 cup flour all at once using a wooden spoon. Once incorporated, place the saucepan back over medium heat and stir constantly for another 1 1/2 to 2 minutes to release extra moisture and partially cook the flour. The dough will look smooth and a thin film will form on the bottom of the pan.
  • Transfer the dough to a large mixing bowl and use an electric mixer to beat on medium speed for 1 minute to cool the mixture slightly. Add 4 eggs, adding them 1 at a time and allowing eggs to fully incorporate between each addition. Once all eggs are incorporated, beat another minute until the dough is smooth and forms a thick ribbon when you pull up on the whisk.
  • Transfer dough to a piping bag with a 1/2-inch opening, or use a large zip bag and cut a 1/2-inch opening at the tip.
  • Heat oil to 375˚F in a dutch oven with a thermometer attached, or in a deep fryer. Once oil is hot, pipe 1-inch lengths into the hot oil, swiftly cutting the dough as you pipe into the oil. Pipe closer to the surface of the oil to avoid oil splashes.
  • Fry 4-5 minutes total, turning them over halfway if they don't turn on their own then transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to soak up extra oil then dust with powdered sugar to serve.

ITALIAN CHERRY DOUGHNUTS (BOMBOLONI)



Italian Cherry Doughnuts (Bomboloni) image

If using cherry preserves, mash or puree to remove pieces of fruit that may clog the pastry tip.The bomboloni are wonderful plain too, if you don't want to go the trouble of filling them. Another option - split them in half and spoon over preserves or filling of your choice.

Time 3h

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon instant yeast
¾ cup lukewarm milk (heat in microwave)
3 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt (I use Diamond brand. Halve the amount if using Morton's)
⅛ teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
¼ cup softened butter
¾ cup granulated sugar (plus more for coating)
2 eggs
4-6 cups olive oil or other vegetable oil
1 cup cherry preserves and/or 1 cup pastry cream (recipe below)

Steps:

  • Dissolve the yeast with the milk in a medium bowl Stir in 1 cup of the flour. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it proof until bubbly, about 1 hour.
  • Whisk together the remaining flour with the salt and nutmeg in a bowl.
  • Beat the butter in a standing mixer with the paddle attachment until creamy, about 30 seconds; add the sugar and beat until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, one at time, until blended.
  • Add the yeast mixture along with the flour mixture. Mix on medium speed until the flour is incorporated and a soft dough that pulls away from the side of the bowl forms, 2 or 3 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly buttered bowl, cover and leave at room temperature 1 hour. (The dough can also be refrigerated up to one day ahead of frying at this point - leave out for one hour before proceeding.
  • Place the dough on a floured surface and pat or roll it out ½-inch thick. Cut out circles using a 1 - 1/2-inch diameter biscuit cutter. Arrange the doughnuts on a baking sheet, lightly cover with a towel and let them rise for an hour.
  • Pour oil to a depth of 4 inches in a heavy pot or saucepan (I used a 3-quart) and heat to 350 (175 C) degrees.
  • Drop the doughnuts into the oil 3 or 4 at a time. Fry until puffed and golden all over, turning once. Remove the doughnuts as they're done and immediately roll them in sugar, then onto a rack to cool.
  • Put the jam and/or pastry cream in a piping bag or a sealable plastic bag fitted with a plain pastry tip. Gently poke a hole into each doughnut with a wide skewer (or use the pastry tip) and fill each bomboloni. Serve freshly made.

ZEPPOLE, ITALIAN RICOTTA DOUGHNUTS



Zeppole, Italian Ricotta Doughnuts image

These Zeppole, ricotta doughnuts are so incredibly light... sweet and crunchy on the outside and pillowy soft on the inside. As an added bonus, they are simply a snap to make at home.

Provided by Marisa

Categories     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 8

3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon of all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
pinch of salt
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 cup ricotta cheese (full fat)
2 large eggs
canola oil or vegetable oil for deep frying
powdered sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • In a Medium sized bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and the 3 tablespoons of sugar and then set aside.
  • In a stand mixer or a hand held mixer, beat together the eggs and the ricotta cheese just until fairly smooth.
  • Stir the flour mixture into the ricotta mixture until thoroughly combined.
  • In a large heavy pot or a dutch oven, pour in enough oil to reach 2 inches high and heat to 375*. A candy thermometer comes in handy in order to get the right temperature and ensuring the oil does not drop under 350*, while you are frying between batches.
  • If the oil is not hot enough the doughnuts will be too soggy and if it is too hot then the outside will darken quickly leaving the inside under cooked.
  • Use a 1 1/2 inch scoop or 2 small spoons to drop bits of dough into the hot oil.
  • Fry the zeppole for about 2 to 3 minutes, turning often until they are puffed, fluffy and golden brown.
  • Larger sized doughnuts will need extra time. Use a slotted spoon to remove the zeppole from the pan and drain them on paper towels. Repeat until you have used up all the batter.
  • Dust with icing or powdered sugar and serve while still warm.
