 Hey guys welcome back to Six Sister Stuff. Today I'm cooking one of my most favorite foods and it's donuts but in the air fryer. So I'm Kristen Hills and if you're new to the channel I love sharing simple easy recipes to make cooking just a little bit easier. Now when I was a teenager I used to work at a donut shop and I do have to say I've kind of become picky about my donuts. I know a good donut from a not so good donut. So we're gonna try out these air fryer donuts just to see how they go. I'm excited let's jump into the recipe. Alright so first I'm gonna add two and a fourth teaspoon of active dry yeast. Then I'm gonna add half a cup of warm water and a fourth cup of warm milk. I mix mine together just to make it easier for me. We'll just dump it right in. Okay then you're gonna take one tablespoon of sugar and you're gonna just add it in. Then we're just gonna mix it just a little bit and then we're gonna set our timer for five minutes and just let it sit. Alright so I'm gonna take my mixture that's been sitting there for about five minutes and just dump it in to my stand mixer. Now if you don't have a stand mixer that's okay you can use a bowl and a whisk or a spoon if you want. Then I'm gonna take a fourth cup of butter and we're just going to melt this in the microwave and then just go ahead and pour that in. I'm gonna use the bowl that I've used before so I need an egg yolk so I'm gonna get rid of all the white and just keep the yolk. Alright then we'll dump this in and then just add a normal egg. Then we have a teaspoon of vanilla. You guys know me I'm just gonna add all that. Then a third cup of sugar and then two and a half cups of flour and then about a half teaspoon or so of salt. Okay so we're just gonna put this lid on. There we go. This little one too. Okay and we're just gonna go on low until all the flour is incorporated so we're just going to a one right now in my pot. Okay once the flour is pretty much all incorporated we're gonna go ahead and mix this on a little bit higher level for about five minutes. Okay it's been about five minutes. We're gonna go ahead and take this off. Now we're just gonna test if it's too sticky. We're gonna add a little bit more flour. It's a little sticky so we're gonna add I don't know one tablespoon at a time just to see how it goes and see if we can get it. Not so sticky. Here's our first tablespoon. I actually might add one more too just because it's pretty sticky. Okay then we'll just turn it on and mix it around a bit. Okay so it's still supposed to be a little bit sticky. I feel like this is a good enough texture for us. So just take it off this and then we're gonna put it into a bowl and cover it. We got all my dough. I'm just gonna carefully get it off my fingers. Now this bowl is sprayed with cooking spray so it won't stick. We're just gonna kind of even it out a little bit and then we're gonna cover it with a towel and let it sit here for about an hour. So I'm just gonna flour a surface and then just pour on my dough and it doubled so it's working. It's working. Okay so you're just gonna roll it out till it's about half an inch thick. Now it's time to make the doughnuts. Now I don't have a special doughnut press but I have a cup and it'll work so we're just gonna improvise putting my cup through. Yes it worked. Okay then I have this little dude that will just put a hole through the center which will make our doughnut perfect. So now you can either grease your pan or put down some parchment paper. I did parchment paper. I'll just put down my doughnut. So now we're just going to cover them lightly and then let them rise for about 20 more minutes. Okay they should be done here. Ready to air fry. I'm excited. You're gonna preheat the air fryer to 345 and when you're ready let's put in our doughnuts. All right so I'm gonna spray the bottom with my olive oil and then put down the doughnuts. Now you just want to make sure they're not touching each other. They might be a little deformed but you know what it's the taste that counts. That's what we're looking for. All right I have four in. We're gonna cook them for just four minutes. They're all done. Let's look at that. Those turned out good. Okay we're gonna let them cool and then it's time for the frosting. Okay so the secret is you want to do it while they're hot. So these are actually really toasty still and we're going to dip them into our thing. Now if you have a cooling rack that would be a perfect time to pull it out and use it. You guys I don't have one so I'm just gonna do it on some wax paper. Here we go one two three whoop. It will still work just fine. All right guys time for the taste test. I have Maley here with me. Are you ready to taste it? Bring it on over. Okay I'll take the first one. You can take the next one. All right we're gonna do one. You're gonna take stars out of five. So just you know. All right are you ready? Okay taste test. First cheers. Cheers. You missed. Cheers. What do you think? More five? Five out of five? All right for a baked donut that's pretty good. I love deep bread donuts but baked donut we're trying a little healthier. It's not bad. It kind of tastes like a delicious roll that's covered in sugar so I would I would make this again. You like it? Mm-hmm. She likes it.
