How to Make B's Cinnamon Sugar Italian Doughnut
- In a large bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let stand for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
- Add the eggs, oil, salt, and vanilla extract to the yeast mixture. Whisk until combined.
- Gradually add the flour, mixing until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5-7 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
- Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turning to coat. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1-1.5 hours, or until doubled in size.
- Punch down the dough and divide it into 12 equal pieces. Shape each piece into a doughnut (you can use a doughnut cutter or roll into balls and make a hole in the center).
- Place the doughnuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover and let rise for another 30 minutes.
- Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) in a large pot or deep fryer.
- Carefully fry the doughnuts in batches for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
- Remove the doughnuts from the oil and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
- While still warm, toss the doughnuts in a mixture of cinnamon and sugar until fully coated.
