How to Make Caramel Filled Doughnuts

Step 1

Start by mixing the flour, sugar, yeast and salt. Set to one side.

Step 2

Warm the milk a little (don't boil!) and add in the butter.

Step 3

Add 3/4 of the milk to the flour mix and keep adding until the mixture comes together to form a soft but not sticky dough.

Step 4

Knead the dough for 5 minutes on a lightly floured surface.

Step 5

Place the dough in a greased bowl and brush with oil before covering it with a damp towel and allow to rise for at least 1 hour.

Step 6

Once the dough has doubled in size, take it out of the bowl and punch down all the air bubbles that have formed, and cut it into 8 pieces.

Step 7

Roll each into an individual ball and rest for another 30 mins.

Step 8

Make your caramel by bringing to boil the condensed milk (constantly mixing) until it turns into a caramel colour, add in your butter slowly and mix until combined. Set to one side to cool down.

Step 9

Mix the Tate & Lyle Caster Sugar and Cinnamon together in a bowl.

Step 10

Heat up oil and fry for about 2 min each side, when both sides are golden remove, drain and toss in the sugar mix.

Step 11

Cut a small hole in the doughnut from one of the corners to the middle without reaching the other side.

Step 12

Insert your piping tip with the caramel inside and pipe in about 3 tbsp.

Sometimes, simple says it best. The sugar donut: Golden. Pillowy. Dusted in sugar. A classic done right.
