Ingredients
1
qt
milk warmed
10
Tbs
raw sugar
8
Tbs
olive oil
1
Tbs
salt
⅛
teaspoon
nutmeg
optional
7
tablespoon
dry yeast
4
cups
unbleached flour
4
cups
whole wheat flour
sprouted
Instructions
Preheat deep fryer.
Pour milk into the bowl of your mixer.
Add sugar, oil, salt and nutmeg.
Add yeast last (the other ingredients help cool the milk so it does not kill your yeast).
Add the whole wheat and all purpose flour and knead until well blended and dough does not stick to the sides of the bowl.
Place on oiled surface and prepare to roll the dough out to ½ inch thickness.
Roll dough out to ½ inch thickness and cut out.
Cut out the doughnuts and the holes - a plastic glass for the large round and a smaller container for the holes or whatever works!
Deep fry in oil at 375F. The doughnuts will float, so, after a couple of minutes, turn them to cook the other side. You want a nice golden brown.
Drain the doughnuts on paper towel.
Ice or glaze as desired. We dip the hot doughnuts into a warm chocolate icing allowing it to drip and then place on a platter.
Notes
Try decorating the doughnuts with sprinkles, chopped nuts or dried fruit
