Description

Enjoy irresistibly fluffy and creamy Korean milk cream donuts, perfect for breakfast or gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 250 g All-Purpose Flour
  • 25 g Sugar (adjustable to taste)
  • 7 g Instant Yeast
  • 90 ml Milk (preferably lukewarm)
  • 1 large Egg (or applesauce for vegan)
  • 30 g Butter (or coconut oil for dairy-free)
  • 300 ml Heavy Whipping Cream
  • 50 g Sugar (for whipping the cream)
  • 1 tbsp Condensed Milk (optional)
  • Powdered Sugar for dusting (optional)

Instructions

  1. Activate the yeast: Combine lukewarm milk and sugar, then sprinkle the yeast on top. Let it rest for about 5-10 minutes, or until bubbling.
  2. Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt.
  3. Form the dough: Add the yeast mixture, beaten egg, and melted butter to the flour. Mix until a dough forms.
  4. Knead: Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
  5. First rise: Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise for 1-2 hours, or until doubled in size.
  6. Shape the donuts: Punch down the dough, then divide it into small balls. Allow them to rest for 10 minutes.
  7. Fill and fry: Heat oil in a pot. Once hot, carefully fry the donuts until golden brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
  8. Whip the cream: In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream, sugar, and optional condensed milk until stiff peaks form.
  9. Assemble: Once the donuts have cooled, fill them with whipped cream using a piping bag.
  10. Dust and serve: Dust with powdered sugar before serving.

Notes

Store donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days or freeze without filling for a month.
