Ingredients
Doughnuts
- brown sugar: 40 g
- eggs: 2
- coconut milk: 92 g
- coconut oil: 125 g
- plum jam: 290 g
- salt: a pinch
- fresh yeast: 35 g
- spelt flour: 315 g
Glaze
- coconut milk: 400 g
- vanilla: 3 g
- maple syrup: 2 tablespoons
Preparation
Step 1: Prepare the Starter All ingredients must be at room temperature! In a bowl, mix the yeast with 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of flour, and 50 ml of warm milk. Set aside and wait for the yeast to activate (about 10 minutes).
Step 2: Make the Dough In another bowl, combine the remaining flour and sugar. Add the remaining milk, a pinch of salt, the activated starter, and the eggs. Mix everything together. Then add the coconut oil and knead for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and shiny. Transfer the dough to a bowl, cover with a linen cloth or paper towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour.
Step 3: Cut Out Dough Circles Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down, transfer it to a floured surface, and knead again. Roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1 cm. Use a metal cutter to cut out circles. Place a teaspoon of plum jam on each circle, seal, and form into balls.
Step 4: Proof the Doughnuts Place the doughnuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and put them in the oven to proof. Place a pan of boiling water on the bottom of the oven to create steam, which will help the doughnuts rise. Let them proof.
Step 5: Prepare Steam for Cooking Doughnuts Pour about 5 cm of water into the bottom of a pot. Place a cheesecloth or linen cloth over the pot and secure it tightly with a string. Cover the
top of the pot with a metal bowl and turn on the burner.
Step 6: Steam the Doughnuts Remove the doughnuts from the oven and place them on the cloth over the pot with boiling water. Cover with the metal bowl and steam the doughnuts for about 5 minutes.
Step 7: Prepare the Glaze In a bowl, mix the coconut cream with the remaining ingredients until well combined.
Serving Place the steamed doughnuts on a plate, brush with the glaze, and decorate with colorful sprinkles. Enjoy your fit doughnuts!
