A Recipe For Homemade Potato Donuts

A recipe for donuts that are heavenly delicious even though they are made without a donut mold at all.

Suddenly I was craving for donuts, but potato donuts. Indeed, I can buy donuts at the bakery. However, I considered again about the donut toppings that are too sweet, and the price is more expensive. So, I decided to make homemade potato donuts.

Actually, I have wanted to make homemade donuts for a long time, but I always thought about the donut mold to make the round shape in the middle of the donut that is typical. But now, I don't bother about the shape anymore. Because I don't have a donut mold at all. Besides, taste is the most important thing, right?

Making potato donuts is simple, but the process of kneading and shaping them looks like a tiring job. However, I feel happy when my family eats my homemade donuts happily. Let's make them!

THE INGREDIENTS

  • 250 grams of all-purpose flour with a medium protein level
  • 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes
  • 1 1/2 tsp of yeast
  • 40 grams of sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 80 of milk
  • 30 grams of margarine



COOKING INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 1

Prepare the potatoes, peel the potatoes and cut them into pieces. Boil in boiling water for 15 minutes. Remove and drain.



STEP 2

Prepare a sieve, then make mashed potatoes using a sieve. Press the boiled potatoes in a sieve, then scoop out the soft potato mass from the bottom of the sieve. Set aside only 1/2 cup of mashed potatoes.

STEP 3

9F536218-838E-4773-AD3F-E910C78309F8.jpeg

Get a large bowl. Add the all-purpose flour, yeast, and sugar, then mix well using only a fork or a balloon whisk.



STEP 4

F6BA4AE7-FBAC-4CFA-A482-626A5F7FE1F1.jpeg

Add the mashed potatoes, an egg, and milk. Mix well again.



STEP 5

40887F05-11CB-4614-AF5F-236B894D96AB.jpeg

Add margarine, then knead the dough until smooth and they can be formed into smaller round shapes.



STEP 6

8BF917BF-7ABE-4123-9053-6C2DB5AFF914.jpeg

Divide the dough into small rounds. Don't forget to sprinkle the tray with flour so that the potato donut dough doesn't stick. Then, cover with a cloth, then let it sit for 15 minutes.



STEP 7

DA217DFE-7965-4685-B51B-3985E9C61951.jpeg

Prepare a cutting board to knead again, then take the round dough one by one. Using a chopstick, poke the center of the dough, then make a circular motion to create a hole in the center.



STEP 8

28343406-ABA7-46FB-8386-23CA1704B3AE.jpeg

Let the doughnut dough rest for another 15 minutes. Don't forget to cover the doughnut dough during this process with a dishtowel.



STEP 9

3CA2AE63-5052-43C6-A38E-8CFB45EF3058.jpeg

Heat the oil over medium heat. Then, fry the potato donuts until they are browned. Make sure to turn the donuts using a wooden chopstick so they cook evenly. Keep an eye on the donuts while they are in the frying pan because they will brown very quickly. Be careful they get burnt!



THE RESULTS

I blended 1/4 cup of sugar to make powdered sugar as a topping for these potato donuts. I didn't expect, the inside of the donuts were very soft and porous!

Although the shape of the potato donuts was strange from the outside, the taste was really delicious and heavenly! With a topping that was not too sweet, I really liked it.

But still, I only ate one of these potato donuts, and the rest I gave to my family members.

I had to keep an eye on my husband because he couldn't stop eating these donuts. I think my husband had eaten 4 pieces! Oh,,,,. So, I wrapped the potato donuts and delivered them to my other family members.

The potato donuts were finished in an instant and I was very happy. It felt like my tiredness in making these homemade donuts was paid off by the happiness of the people who ate my donuts. So, until next on my kitchen stories!

This recipe is great, when my daughter gets home from school I will show it to her, she loves to cook new things, I honestly did not know that you could make donuts with potatoes and I have the ingredients, I just need the yeast.

The good thing is the step by step you show us and I congratulate you for the presentation of the finished dish.
