Instructions
Step 1: Activate the Yeast
- In a small bowl, combine the warm milk and yeast . Stir gently and let sit for 5–10 minutes , until frothy. This indicates the yeast is active.
Step 2: Make the Dough
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 cup of flour , sugar , and salt .
- Add the eggs , melted butter , and yeast mixture to the dry ingredients. Mix until combined.
- Gradually add the remaining flour, one cup at a time, mixing until a soft dough forms. You may not need all the flour—stop when the dough is no longer sticky but still soft.
Step 3: Knead and Rise
- Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5–7 minutes , until smooth and elastic.
- Lightly grease a large bowl with oil or butter. Place the dough in the bowl, turning it to coat all sides.
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free area for 1–1.5 hours , or until doubled in size.
Step 4: Prepare the Filling
- In a small bowl, mix the condensed milk , vanilla extract , and pinch of salt . Set aside.
Step 5: Shape and Fill the Doughnuts
-
- Punch down the risen dough to release air bubbles. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.
- Divide the dough into 12–16 equal pieces (depending on how large you want the puffs). Roll each piece into a ball.
- Flatten each ball slightly and spoon about 1 teaspoon of filling into the center. Pinch the edges together to seal completely, then roll into a smooth ball again.
Step 6: Fry the Doughnuts
- Heat about 2 inches of oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C) .
- Fry the doughnuts in batches, turning occasionally, for 2–3 minutes per batch , or until golden brown on all sides. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
- Remove the doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 7: Coat with Cinnamon Sugar
- In a small bowl, mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon .
- While the doughnuts are still warm, roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
Step 8: Serve and Enjoy!
Serve the Condensed Milk & Cinnamon Doughnut Puffs warm or at room temperature. Bite into the crispy exterior to discover the creamy, sweet filling inside.
