Instructions

Step 1

Combine the warm milk, active yeast, and sugar in a large bowl and let sit for 5 minutes until frothy.

Step 2

Add the eggs, melted butter, and flour to the yeast mixture and mix until a shaggy dough forms.

Step 3

Knead the dough on a floured surface for 8 minutes until smooth and elastic.

Step 4

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for 20 minutes or until doubled in size.

Step 5

Punch down the dough, roll out to 1/2 inch thickness, and cut out 12 doughnuts using a cutter.

Step 6

Let the cut dough rest for 5 minutes while preheating the air fryer to 160°C.

Step 7

Lightly brush or spray the doughnuts with oil and air fry in batches for 8 minutes until golden brown.

Step 8

Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl until smooth and glossy.

Step 9

Dip the tops of the cooled doughnuts into the chocolate and decorate with sprinkles, allowing the glaze to set before serving.

Pro Tips

#1

Use a stand mixer with a dough hook to make kneading easier.

#2

Lightly brushing or spraying the doughnuts with oil helps achieve a better golden-brown color.

#3

Ensure the milk is warm but not hot to avoid killing the yeast.

#4

Doughnuts are best served slightly warm or at room temperature.
