Step-By-Step Instructions

  • Proof the yeast: To proof the yeast place warm water in a small bowl. Whisk together warm water, yeast, and 1 teaspoon of sugar and let it rest for a few minutes. After 10 to 15 minutes, the yeast should bubble and foam up.
  • Making the dough: In a large bowl(or in a bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook) add flour, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, vanilla extract, and proofed yeast mixture. Just mix them for about 4-5 minutes until the dough comes together. You can also make the dough by hand, but it will take a little more work and effort. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel or oiled plastic wrap and let it rest for 15-20 minutes at room temperature. Knead the dough with your hand for 2-3 minutes. Then add room temperature butter and knead for another 10-12 minutes.
  • Let the dough rise: Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
  • Cut the dough into doughnuts: Place the dough on a floured surface and roll the dough out to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut into donuts with a donut cutter and then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Cover with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • Fry the doughnuts: Heat a few inches of oil to 365F. Carefully add a few doughnuts and doughnut holes to the hot oil and fry until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts from the frying oil. Put them on a wire rack to cool.

How to Make Biscoff Doughnuts Like a Pro?

  • Before starting, gather the ingredients and place them on the countertop. Measure the required ingredients accurately.
  • The proofing time is a must for donuts. Do not skip it at all.
  • Avoid adding too many donuts at once to the hot oil because this will lower the oil’s temperature.
  • If the oil is not hot enough doughnuts will absorb too much oil. If the oil is too hot the outside of the donut will be overcooked and burnt.
