For 12 portions

Ingredients

250 ml lukewarm milk
60 g sugar
1 packet of yeast
60 ml hot water
700 g all-purpose flour
100 g melted butter
3 eggs
a pinch of salt
Jam or Nutella for filling
Powdered sugar for sprinkling

Preparation procedure

In a bowl mix the lukewarm milk, water, sugar and yeast. Let the mixture stand for 10 minutes.
Add the eggs, melted butter and flour and knead into a smooth dough.
Cover the bowl with a cloth and let the dough rise in a warm place.
After rising, roll the dough out to about 3 mm thick and cut out circles using a glass with a diameter of 8-10 cm.
Put a tablespoon of jam or Nutella on each circle.
Cover with another circle and press the edges firmly together so they seal.
Transfer all the doughnuts to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, cover with a cloth and let them rise for another 35 minutes.
Then bake in a preheated oven at 170°C until golden (about 15-20 minutes).
You can also fry the doughnuts in oil, but baking is a healthier alternative.
After baking, brush the doughnuts with melted butter.
Let them cool and then sprinkle with powdered sugar.
