Are you a doughnut lover? If so, then you’re in for a treat! Today, we’ll be diving into the wonderful world of Krapfen – a traditional Austrian doughnut that is sure to tantalize your taste buds. Join me as I guide you through each step of the process, so you can make these irresistible treats right in the comfort of your own home.

What You’ll Need

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons active dry yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2/3 cup warm milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • A deep fryer or large pot for frying
  • Confectioners’ sugar for dusting

Let’s Get Started!

1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, yeast, and salt.

2. Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the warm milk. Stir gently to combine.

3. Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and softened butter to the mixture. Mix everything together until a soft dough forms.

Rising and Shaping the Dough

1. Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

2. Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release any air bubbles. Turn it out onto a lightly floured surface.

3. Roll the dough out to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Use a round cookie cutter or glass to cut out circles from the dough.

Frying the Krapfen to Perfection

1. Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large pot to about 375°F (190°C).

2. Carefully drop the dough circles into the hot oil, frying them until they turn golden brown on both sides.

3. Remove the fried Krapfen from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.

Serving and Enjoying

1. Once the Krapfen have cooled slightly, dust them generously with confectioners’ sugar.

2. Serve these mouthwatering treats warm and enjoy with a hot cup of coffee or tea.

Now that you know how to make Krapfen, you can impress your friends and family with these delectable delights. Get ready to savor the sweet, fluffy goodness of homemade doughnuts. Bon appétit!
