Salted caramel is a flavor that is taking tables by storm. When preparing sweets for the carnival ball, this is definitely worth considering. Traditional donuts with less conventional fillings may become a hit in our home.

Donuts with Salted Caramel: Ingredients Needed

  • 21 ounces of cake flour
  • A packet of dried yeast
  • 4 yolks
  • 1 whole egg
  • A tablespoon of spirits
  • 3/4 cups of warm milk
  • A tablespoon of butter
  • A pinch of salt
  • Shortening or oil for frying

Filling:

  • 6.8 fluid ounces of salted caramel
  • 3/4 cup of milk
  • A tablespoon of sugar
  • 1 yolk
  • Vanilla pudding packet
  • Powdered sugar for dusting
Donuts with Salted Caramel: How to Prepare
  • Prepare the dough. Mix the ingredients using a mixer. Once done, set aside and cover with a towel to rise.
  • Roll out the dough and use a glass to cut out circles as you would for dumplings. Leave these prepared "circles" in the dough to rise further.
  • While the donuts are rising, heat the oil or shortening in a large pot with a heavy bottom.
  • Fry the donuts on both sides until they are golden brown.
  • As the donuts are cooling, prepare the filling. Boil milk with sugar. In a separate bowl, mix the caramel with yolk and pudding. Then pour this mixture into the hot milk and bring it to a boil.
  • Once cooled, cut or hollow out a hole on the side of each donut to make room for the caramel filling.
  • Dust the completed donuts with powdered sugar.
