Instructions
Dough Preparation
- In a measuring cup, stir together the milk, butter, yeast, and egg.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, nutmeg, and salt.
- Pour the yeast mixture into the dry ingredients and mix using a stand mixer with a hook attachment. Start on low speed and increase to high for 3 minutes.
- If kneading by hand, knead for 10 minutes until a smooth, soft, and slightly sticky dough forms.
- Transfer to a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm area for 2 hours.
- Once the dough has doubled in size, roll it out onto a floured surface to roughly half an inch thick.
- Use a large cookie cutter to cut out 3-4 inch diameter circles. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
Filling and Frying
- While the dough is proofing, prepare your chosen filling by mixing the respective ingredients together.
- Preheat the frying oil to approximately 160 degrees C.
- Fry 3-4 donuts at a time for a couple of minutes on each side until golden brown.
- Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Use a skewer to puncture a hole in the side of each donut and hollow it out slightly.
- Fill a piping bag with a round nozzle and pipe the filling into each donut.
- Dip the filled donuts into melted Biscoff spread and top with crushed Biscoff biscuits and white chocolate flakes.
Notes
- Ensure the oil temperature stays consistent for an even fry.
- The dough is naturally sticky, so use enough flour on your surface when rolling to prevent sticking.
