I made these donuts to use up leftover pumpkin I bought for plating with @aop_indonesia. It would be a shame to waste it.

Tips for making donuts:
▫️Make sure the yeast is still active.
▫️To get the white ring, knead the dough until it's smooth and elastic (if you stretch the dough, it won't break).
▫️Avoid over-proofing, as the donuts may puff up too much when fried but will wrinkle after being removed from the oil.
▫️Adjust the water as needed, depending on the flour's moisture.
▫️Dust your hands with flour if the dough feels sticky.

  8. 8

    Place on baking paper dusted with flour to prevent sticking. Let rise again for about 15 minutes (be careful not to over-proof). I put them in a container and covered it to prevent the dough from drying out.

    Fry in hot oil over medium heat until cooked, turning only once to avoid absorbing too much oil.

    Remove and drain, then add your preferred topping. I just dusted them with powdered sugar.

    Soft and delicious.

    Texture after two days (left at room temperature) is still soft but not as tender as the first day.
