Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Place milk, egg, butter, flour, sugar, salt, and yeast into a bread machine in the order listed, or follow the order recommended by your manufacturer if different. Run Dough cycle.
Step 3
Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.
Step 4
Knead dough a few times on a floured work surface to collapse all the bubbles. Cut dough into 16 pieces. Cover with a damp cloth and let rest for 20 minutes.
Step 5
Stretch each ball out into a 1/4-inch-thick disk. Use a small cutter to cut a hole in the center of each disk. Let doughnuts rise on the floured surface until doubled in size, 30 to 40 minutes.
Step 6
Working in batches of 2 to 3, gently place doughnuts into hot oil; fry until they float to the top and turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Flip doughnuts and repeat on the other side. Drain on paper towels.
