These homemade doughnuts are soft, airy, and finished with a sweet, silky glaze. The dough begins with active dry yeast bloomed in warm water, then enriched with warm whole milk, softened butter, sugar, salt, and a room-temperature egg. All-purpose flour forms the structure, creating a smooth, elastic dough ready for frying.

Once shaped and deep-fried to golden perfection, the doughnuts are dipped in a luscious glaze made from confectioners’ sugar, whole milk, light corn syrup, vanilla extract, and a pinch of kosher salt for balance.

Perfect for weekend baking, celebrations, or a sweet morning indulgence.
