Tips & Tricks
Ensure the yeast is fresh for best results. Proofing the yeast in warm water beforehand can help activate it.
Do not overcrowd the pan while frying to maintain the oil temperature.
Adjust the amount of milk in the glaze to achieve the desired consistency.
For a richer flavor, use melted butter instead of softened butter in the dough.
FAQS
Can I use a different type of flour?
All-purpose flour works best for this recipe, but you can substitute with bread flour for a chewier texture.
How do I store leftover doughnuts?

Can I bake these doughnuts instead of frying?
Yes, you can bake them at 350°F (175°C) for about 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown.
Can I make the dough ahead of time?

What can I use instead of Nutella?
You can use any chocolate spread, jam, or even a simple sugar glaze for topping the doughnuts.
