Only this time you will be making them in a jiffy. No yeast for rising and no waiting time. Quick, easy and irresistable!
You will have Doughnut Holes that are crispy on the outside and soft and pillowy on the inside. Everything a great Doughnut Hole should encompass. And all you need is about 30 minutes of your precious time. Be warned they are addictive!
What ingredients do I need?
That’s the wonderful thing about these Doughnut Holes. You use staple pantry ingredients and there’s no eggs. Ok, I exxagerate a little, buttermilk is not something everybody has available all the time so I guess you may have to get that. I have tried making these doughnuts with milk too, although it worked well it wasn’t as pillowy soft as the ones with buttermilk. So I suggest you use buttermilk, it will be so worth it. Although people recommend homemade buttermilk, for me it’s not the same. I have tried making buttermilk at home and trust me the results were never the same. Just my opinion but if you feel it works go ahead.
Quick and Easy
You should all know my middle name by now…haha! This is quick and easy. I honestly did not fuss over it. I literally dumped all my dry ingredients into a bowl. I then added my wet ingredients, gave it a mix with a whisk and I was good to go.
Consistency of the batter
This is a slightly thick batter. I won’t exactly say drop consistency but close enough. You will require 2 spoons to get the batter into the oil. The buttermilk didn’t exactly work on it’s own so I added a couple of tablespoons of milk just to get the consistency to what I wanted. It worked like a charm. I suggest you use a measuring tablespoon and scoop the batter. Try using another spoon to neaten the batter a little, you get what I mean. Gently slide the batter into the oil. That way you should get fairly round doughnut holes. I know I have been bad with videos but I will get that going again soon. As soon as I can breath a little.
Can I bake these in the oven?
I guess you can but I haven’t tried doing that just yet. But you can give it a try and let me know if it works. Baking it in the oven won’t exactly give you the same results as the deep-fried ones. As I say if you are eating things in moderation a little bit of deep-frying won’t cause much harm. As long as you don’t deep-fry too often.
