For the doughnuts:

• 1 cup warm (~ 110°F) milk, whole or 2%

• 1 packet active dry yeast (2 1/4 tsp.)

• 1/4 cup granulated sugar, divided

• 3 cups all-purpose flour

Directions

Make the doughnuts:

1. In a small bowl, combine the warm milk, yeast and 1 tbsp. of the granulated sugar. Stir together, and let sit until proofed, about 5 minutes. The mixture will be foamy with bubbles.

2. Transfer the proofed yeast to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a hook attachment. Add the flour, remaining sugar, vegetable oil. egg and salt, and mix on low speed for 4-6 minutes, or until the dough is shiny and has pulled away from the bowl. It will be fairly sticky.
