Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 250 g of all-purpose flour, 25 g of sugar, and 7 g of instant yeast. In a saucepan, gently warm 90 ml of milk until just lukewarm and melt 30 g of unsalted butter. Pour the warm milk and melted butter into the dry ingredients along with 1 beaten egg. Mix everything until a shaggy dough forms.
- Lightly flour a clean surface and turn out the dough. Knead the dough for about 10 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic. You’ll know it’s ready when it springs back when poked.
- Coat a bowl with a little oil and place the kneaded dough inside, covering it with a clean kitchen towel. Let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free spot for 1-2 hours, or until it has doubled in size.
- Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down before turning it out onto a floured surface. Roll it out to about 1.5 cm thick and cut out donut shapes using a donut cutter. Gather the scraps, re-roll, and cut again. Let the shaped donuts rise for about 30 minutes.
- In a deep heavy-bottomed pan, heat oil to about 350°F (175°C) over medium-high heat. Carefully lower the risen donuts into the hot oil, frying them for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn golden brown.
- While the donuts cool slightly, prepare the filling. In a mixing bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold in 50 g of condensed milk and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract until combined.
- Using a piping bag fitted with a round tip, fill each donut with the whipped cream mixture.
- Before serving, dust the freshly filled donuts with powdered sugar.

Notes
Ensure oil is heated to 350°F (175°C) before frying. Fill donuts just before serving to maintain texture. Use fresh ingredients for best results. Allow adequate rising time for fluffiness.
