Fastnachts

Ingredients

  • 1 envelope dry yeast
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 5 1/2 cups flour
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • salt
  • 3 eggs, beaten
  • 4 tablespoons butter, softened
  • pinch nutmeg

Instructions

12 Doughnuts. Proof yeast in 1 cup warm water. Add 1/2 cup of the flour, stirring until smooth, then add milk. To the mixture, add 1 tablespoon sugar and 5 1/2 cups of flour, blending well. Cover and let rise until doubled in bulk. Mix in the salt, eggs, butter, nutmeg and 1/2 cup sugar. Knead in enough extra flour in order to make a firm dough. Let rise again until doubled. Punch down and roll out on a floured board. Cut into squares. Cover and let rise for 20 minutes. Preheat the oil in the deep fryer. Fry donuts until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Dust with powdered sugar while still warm.
