Ingredients
- 250 ml unsweetened almond milk
- 50 g vegan margarine
- 70 g granulated sugar
- 7 g active dry yeast
- 500 g all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 L vegetable oil
- 300 g strawberry jam
- 50 g powdered sugar
Directions
Step 1
Heat the almond milk in a small saucepan or microwave until it's warm (not hot) to the touch.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the warm almond milk, 1 tablespoon of the sugar, and the yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
Step 3
Melt the vegan margarine and add it into the yeast mixture along with the remaining sugar. Stir well to combine.
Step 4
Gradually add the flour and salt to the wet ingredients, mixing with a wooden spoon until it forms a soft dough.
Step 5
Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.
Step 6
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until it has doubled in size.
Step 7
Punch down the dough and roll it out to about 1 cm thickness. Use a round cutter to cut out circles and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 8
Cover the cut donuts with a damp cloth and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes.
Step 9
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep pan or fryer to 180°C (350°F). Carefully fry the donuts in batches for about 1-2 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove them with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
Step 10
While the donuts are still warm, roll them in the powdered sugar.
Step 11
Fill a piping bag fitted with a round nozzle with strawberry jam. Poke a hole in each donut and fill them with jam.
Step 12
Serve the donuts warm or at room temperature and enjoy your dairy-free treat!
