Homemade Donuts
Ingredients
Orange Honey Ricotta Cream Sauce
Coffee Chocolate Ganache
Instructions
-
In a Kitchen Aid mixing bowl, add the melted butter, water, yeast, milk, sugar, salt, egg and whisk together.
-
Add the cake flour and all purpose flour and attach the bowl to your mixer. Using a dough hook, mix the ingredients together to form the dough. Add in the chopped golden raisins. Mix just until the flour is incorporated. Â Cover the dough with a damp towel and put it in a warm environment to proof for one hour.
-
After the dough is done proofing, heat up your oil (at least 2 inches deep) to 375°F.  Using a one once scoop (#30 or #36 disher), scoop balls of dough carefully into the hot oil. Using tongs, flip occasionally and cook for 3 to 4 minutes or until golden brown.
-
When the donuts are cooked, scoop them out of the oil and onto a paper towel. While still hot toss them in sugar. Â Enjoy!
Orange Honey Ricotta Cream Sauce
-
Using a food processor, add the ricotta cheese, honey, cream, vanilla extract, lemon juice and salt. Â Pour ricotta sauce into a bowl and zest an orange right over it and give it a quick mix. Â Cover it and allow it to thicken up in the refrigerator.
Coffee Chocolate Ganache
-
Using a double boiler, add the chocolate chips, butter, cream, instant coffee grounds, brewed coffee and vanilla extract. Â Stir with a spatula as the chocolate melts and all ingredients are combined and smooth. Serve warm.
