recipe for making homemade brioche doughnuts:
Ingredients:
1 cup (240 ml) warm milk
2 1/4 tsp (7 g) active dry yeast
3 eggs
1/2 cup (100 g) sugar
1 tsp (5 g) salt
4 1/2 cups (600 g) all-purpose flour
1/2 cup (115 g) butter, at room temperature
Vegetable oil, for frying
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast. Let sit for about 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes foamy.
Add the eggs, sugar, and salt to the bowl, and whisk until well combined.
Slowly add the flour to the bowl, stirring until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes, or until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Punch down the dough, and roll it out on a floured surface to a thickness of about 1/2 inch (1 cm).
Cut the dough into donut shapes using a doughnut cutter or a round cookie cutter and a smaller round cutter.
