RASPBERRY JAM-FILLED DOUGHNUTS
These babies are PURE HEAVEN and so very easy to make! The only problem is trying NOT to eat too many!! This recipe makes about 20, so plan on eating a lot of them and sharing with friends, neighbors and co-workers because they are best eaten the first day. Day 2 they are ok (just add more sugar or powdered sugar), but not so...

Steps:
- 1. Sprinkle yeast over warm water and let stand five minutes or until foamy. In a large bowl, mix together the yeast mixture, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, shortening and one cup of the flour. Mix for a few minutes at low speed. Beat in remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Knead for about five minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about an hour or a bit longer. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and gently roll out to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut into circles. Let rise again until doubled in bulk. Heat 4 cups of oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350. Carefully slide doughnuts into hot oil using a wide spatula. Turn the doughnuts over as they rise to the surface. Doughnuts are ready when both sides are golden brown. Fill with 1 Tbl.jam or jelly using a pastry injector, or by cutting a small slit in the side of the doughnut and inserting the jelly with a baby spoon. Close tightly, sprinkle with or roll in powdered sugar.

Steps:
- Place yeast and 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons buttermilk in the bowl of an electric mixer. Add powdered milk and 2 cups flour. Let stand 3 minutes. Using paddle attachment, mix on low speed 30 seconds. Increase speed to medium high; mix until dough is smooth and comes together, 2 to 3 minutes; the dough will be very sticky.
- Sift an even layer of flour onto a clean work surface. Turn out dough, and gather into a ball. Clean and lightly oil mixer bowl. Transfer dough to oiled bowl; cover with plastic. Set aside in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Add remaining 5 tablespoons buttermilk, remaining 2 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, sugar, salt, butter, nutmeg, cinnamon, and 8 egg yolks to yeast mixture. Mix on low speed until just combined, about 2 minutes. Increase speed to medium; beat until fully incorporated, about 3 minutes. Add 5 more egg yolks; mix on low speed 30 seconds. Increase speed to high, and beat 1 minute; dough will be very sticky.
- Lightly oil a large bowl. Sift a heavy coat of flour onto a clean work surface. Turn out dough. Sift another heavy layer of flour over dough. Gather dough into a smooth ball. Place in oiled bowl, cover, and set aside until doubled in size again, about 30 minutes.
- Heat oil in a low-sided six-quart saucepan over medium-high heat until a deep-frying thermometer registers 375 degrees. Lightly flour two baking pans, and line another one with paper towels; set pans aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk remaining 2 egg yolks; cover with plastic. Place jam in a bowl; whisk until smooth. Set both aside.
- Turn out dough onto a heavily floured work surface. Divide the dough into two equal pieces. Working quickly, roll one piece of dough, stretching as you roll, into a 12- by-14-inch rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick. Using the dull side of a 2 1/4-inch round doughnut cutter, score 15 circles, spaced 1/4 inch apart. Using a pastry brush, brush each marked circle with beaten egg. Place 1 teaspoon jam in middle of each circle.
- Roll out the second piece of dough as the first. Carefully roll dough around the rolling pin, and, lining up edges, unroll it directly over first. Using dull side of a 1 1/2-inch round doughnut cutter, gently press around each mound, sealing layers, being careful not to cut through dough. Using sharp side of a 2 1/4- inch-round cutter, cut out doughnuts, being careful to keep jelly centered and dipping cutter in flour before each cut. Transfer doughnuts to a floured pan. Using a 1-inch round cutter, cut holes out of remaining scraps; transfer holes to other floured pan. Allow doughnuts and holes to rest 15 minutes.
- Working in batches of four, carefully transfer doughnuts to oil. Cook until golden on bottoms, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, turn doughnuts over, and cook until golden all over, 2 minutes more. Transfer doughnuts to the lined baking pan. Repeat with remaining doughnuts and holes.
- When doughnuts and holes have cooled, roll in sugar, and serve.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, combine yeast with warm water, and let stand until foamy, about 5 minutes. Whisk in honey, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, egg, milk, and corn oil. Using a wooden spoon, stir in salt and flour. Mix until dough appears smooth.
- Transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and set in a warm place to rise until doubled in size, about 1 1/2 hours. Line a baking sheet with parchment, and another one with paper towels; set aside.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured work surface, and knead four to five times. Roll dough into a 10-inch square, about 1/4 inch thick. Using a pizza cutter, cut into 2 1/2-by-2 1/2-inch squares, and transfer to parchment-lined baking sheet. Lightly cover with plastic; let rest in a warm place 20 minutes.
- In a medium saucepan, heat peanut oil until a deep-frying thermometer registers 360 degrees. Working in batches of five or six, fry doughnuts until golden brown on both sides. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper-towel-lined baking sheet to drain. Fry remaining doughnuts.
- In a medium bowl, combine sugar and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Toss the doughnuts lightly in cinnamon sugar.
- Fill a pastry bag fitted with a #4 tip with jam. Using a wooden skewer or toothpick, make a hole in the side of each doughnut. Fit the pastry tip into a hole; pipe about 1 tablespoon jam into doughnut. Repeat with remaining doughnuts. Toss filled doughnuts in cinnamon sugar again, if desired. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Pour the milk into a saucepan and add the split vanilla pod. Slowly bring to a simmer and once it begins to steam, remove from the heat and pour into a measuring jug. If it has reduced, top up to 130ml with extra milk, then leave to cool until tepid.
- Put the flour into the large bowl of a stand mixer. Stir through the sugar, salt and yeast. Using the hook attachment for your mixer, begin combining the dry ingredients, then add the vanilla-infused milk and eggs. Keep mixing for 10 mins until you have a smooth, elastic dough. Scoop small spoonfuls of the softened butter and gradually add to the dough. When all the butter has been added, continue mixing for a further 5-6 mins or until it is well incorporated and the dough is sticky and stretchy.
- Lightly oil a large mixing bowl, put the dough in the bowl, cover and leave in a warm place for 1 hr or until doubled in size.
- Divide the dough into 20 equal-sized pieces (if you want to weigh them, they should be around 45g each). Roll the dough into balls and place them, well spaced apart, on two lightly oiled baking sheets. Cover with lightly oiled baking parchment, or a light tea towel (if it's too heavy, it will keep the dough from rising) and leave for a further 1 hr 30 mins or until doubled in size.
- Fill a large heavy-based saucepan two-thirds full with oil and place over a low-medium heat, bringing the temperature up to 170C. Use a cooking thermometer to check, then carefully lift each doughnut and gently lower into the oil to fry in batches of about 5 at a time. Cook each batch for 5 mins, turning halfway, until the doughnuts are dark golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and transfer to a baking tray lined with kitchen paper. Leave to cool completely.
- Spoon the raspberry jam into a piping bag without a nozzle and snip a very small hole in the end. Use a skewer to poke a hole in the side of each doughnut, then push the end of the piping bag into each hole and pipe in a little of the jam. Set aside.
- For the icing, mix together the icing sugar and 4 tbsp water, then a drop or two of the food colouring to make it pale pink. Drop a dessert-spoonful of the icing on top of each doughnut, then use a palette knife to spread and even out the icing. Sprinkle each one with the freeze-dried raspberries, if you like. Will keep in an airtight container for up to two days.
