Delicious Protein Doughnuts for Valentine's Day
Ingredients
- 330ml soya milk
- 2 tsp cider vinegar
- 300g strong white flour
- 100g Blatantly Good Berry protein
- 50g vegan butter
- 50g sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp yeast
- Oil for frying
Preparation
Mix the soya milk and cider vinegar together.
If using a breadmaker, place the ingredients into the pan in the order recommended by the manufacturer and set to the standard dough recipe.
If making the dough by hand, put the flour, protein powder, and sugar in a bowl and mix together. Put the salt on one side and the yeast on the other.
Make a well in the middle and pour in the milk mixture and melted butter. Mix until a smooth dough forms. Knead for 5 minutes. You can also use a food mixer with a dough attachment.
Place the dough in a bowl, cover, and leave in a warm place until doubled in size.
Knock back the dough, roll out to about 1cm thick. Cut heart shapes with a cookie cutter, place on trays, and leave to rise again for 30 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan or deep fat fryer to 180C.
Fry the doughnuts, turning once, until dark golden on both sides. Drain on a plate covered with kitchen roll.
Once cooled, make a frosting with icing sugar and a little hot water and dip the top of the doughnuts to coat. You can use vegan red food color or cocoa powder to color the icing.
Enjoy!
