Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup 100% hydration sourdough starter (250g)
- 1/2 cup whole milk (115g)
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup raw cane sugar (55g)
- 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter (50g)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp salt (4g)
- 2 1/4 cups organic bread flour (290g)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup whole milk (for glaze)
- 1–3 cups coconut oil for frying
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine your sourdough starter, whole milk, egg, raw cane sugar, melted butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Whisk until well incorporated.
- Gradually add the organic bread flour, one cup at a time, mixing until you achieve a smooth, slightly sticky dough.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a clean kitchen towel, and let the dough rise at room temperature until it has doubled in size (about 1-2 hours).
- Turn the dough onto a floured surface and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thickness. Use a donut cutter to cut out your donuts, placing them on parchment paper.
- Let your shaped donuts rise for another 30-45 minutes.
- For Baked Sourdough Donuts: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place donuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 10-12 minutes until golden brown.
- For Fried Sourdough Donuts: Heat coconut oil in a deep skillet or pot over medium heat to 350°F (175°C). Fry the donuts in batches for about 1 minute on each side, or until golden. Drain on paper towels.
- To make the glaze, mix the powdered sugar with 1/4 cup of whole milk until smooth. Dip the warm donuts into the glaze, allowing the excess to drip off.
Notes
Best served warm with coffee or tea. Store cooled donuts in an airtight container at room temperature for up to two days or freeze for up to a month.
