We know the doughnut as a round, jam-filled food that is especially popular with children because it is sometimes too sweet. Moreover it is sprinkled with sugar, which makes it popular with children. If you want to try another version of this treat, read the following recipe. Adults will enjoy it too.
These doughnuts are made from choux pastry, but there is nothing to fear
To prepare these filled doughnuts, prepare:
- 200 g flour
- 5 eggs
- 200 ml water
- 200 ml oil
- Pinch of salt
Making choux pastry is not difficult, but many people are afraid of it because it is generally known that the dough is made in a pot on the stove. Put water, cooking oil, salt, sugar into the pot and sprinkle in all the flour. Stir until the dough separates from the sides of the pot. Add the eggs to the dough one at a time and always mix them in well. Work in all five eggs this way.
Do not open the oven during baking
Take a piping bag and put the prepared and cooled dough into it. Prepare a baking tray and line it with paper. You can sprinkle it with water. The quantities given in the recipe should be enough for 19 pieces of doughnuts. Using the bag, make elongated „bananas“, place them in the oven and bake at 180 degrees for about 25-30 minutes.
But never open the oven door to check how baked the doughnuts are. The dough would fall and the result certainly would not be as good. Let the baked dough cool, and cut the banana-shaped pieces in half. Meanwhile also prepare the cream, which you can make from pudding. Another option is to fill the doughnuts with ice cream and put them in the freezer, because choux pastry can be frozen. Dust the doughnuts with powdered sugar only just before serving.
However, you can also fill the dough prepared this way with jam made from various kinds of fruit. The doughnuts do not have to look like „bananas“, you can also shape the dough into the classic doughnut shape. Imagination knows no bounds and once you see that making the doughnuts is simple, you will treat not only your children to them more often.
