Ingredients:
\nDonuts
\n1 1\/4 cupswhole milk, divided
\n1 tablespoonplus 1\u00bd teaspoons active dry yeast
\n4 1\/2 cupsbread flour (or a mixture of half all-purpose flour, half bread flour), divided
\n1\/2 cupgranulated sugar, plus more for rolling
\n1\/2 vanilla bean, split lengthwise, or 1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
\n2 large eggs
\n3 large egg yolks
\n1 teaspoonkosher salt
\n1 stick (4 ounces) unsalted butter, room temperature
\nVegetable oil, for frying
\nStrawberry Jam and Assembly
\n2 poundsstrawberries, hulled
\n2 cupsgranulated sugar
\n1 tablespoonfresh lemon or lime juice
\n1 pinchkosher salt<\/p>\n
Directions:<\/p>\n
In a small pot, heat about \u00bd cup of the milk until warm but not hot, about 90\u00b0F. Transfer to a small bowl, add the yeast, and lightly stir to combine. Let sit for about 5 minutes, until foamy.
\nIn the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, mix 4 cups of the flour with the sugar. Add the foamy yeast mixture and scrape in the vanilla. Add the remaining \u00be cup of the milk, the eggs, egg yolks, and salt. Mix on a low speed, then once it starts coming together, add the butter. Increase the speed to medium and mix for about 10 minutes, until the dough is smooth, elastic, and slightly sticky. Add more flour if needed (\u00bd to \u00be cup) just so the dough doesn’t stick to the sides of the bowl.
\nLightly grease a large bowl (the dough will double, so make sure you have enough room), preferably with nonstick oil spray, or a spread a little neutral oil, like canola or vegetable, with a paper towel. Arrange the dough in the bowl and cover with a towel or plastic wrap. Set in a warm area (about 70\u00b0F) for 2 to 3 hours, until doubled in size. Alternatively, let it rise for 1 hour, wrap in plastic, and let rise overnight.
\nThe risen dough will feel very soft. Bring the edges to the center and turn over a few times. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough to about \u00bd inch thick. Cut out 2\u00bd-inch circles and arrange on a parchment-lined sheet pan. Cover lightly with a towel.
\nGather the scraps, reroll (if you feel like the dough is shrinking as you’re trying to roll it out, wrap and refrigerate for about 10 minutes), and cut in the same manner. Leave a few pieces of dough of the same thickness to test the oil.
\nLet the dough rise in a warm area for 45 to 75 minutes, until doubled in size and that when you touch it, it springs back.
\nWhen ready to fry, fill a large deep pan or pot with oil. Heat over medium-high until an instant-read thermometer registers 350\u00b0F.
\nCut parchment into squares so that each donut can sit on an individual square of paper. Carefully drop the donut into the oil and immediately remove the parchment with tongs. It’s best to fry in batches and not overcrowd the pan.
\nFry for about 2 minutes, until golden brown, then turn and continue to fry for 2 minutes more.
\nLet drain on paper towels for about 2 minutes. Roll the donuts in sugar, then let cool before filling.
\nSlice or coarsely chop the strawberries and transfer to a small nonreactive pot. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and salt and cook over medium heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved. Adjust the heat and bring the mixture to a constant soft boil, skimming off the foam as it builds. Continue to cook until the jam tightly grabs a spoon or that it sets when you put a little bit on a cold plate.
\nFill a pastry bag with a small flat tip (about \u00bd inch). Spoon the jam into the bag. Insert the tip into the side or bottom of each donut and fill.
\nThese are best served soon after they’re done.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
