How To Make German Berliner Doughnut Recipe
Add dough dry ingredients to the bowl. Next, add in 2 eggs, and with a wooden spoon, mix well. Place butter in bowl and mix until well combined.Â
Knead until smooth for about 10 minutes or longer. You can also use a mixer with a dough hook.
Stretch the dough and roll it into a ball. Place in greased bowl and cover. Allow to rest and rise for 10-15 minutes.
Remove from bowl and divide into 8 portions or about 60 grams each.
Using your hands roll them into a neatly shaped ball.
Place on a tray allowing room for them to expand. Cover loosely for 2-4 hours.
Remove cover and using a spatula, lower into the oil. Fry over medium heat. 2-3 minutes each side.
To get a ring, don’t touch it during frying. Let them float in the oil and get puffy. Turn over once only. Using a spatula remove from oil.
You should see the ring around the middle of the doughnut. Place on a paper towel-lined plate or wire rack.
To a bowl add sugar coating ingredients. Coat Berliner with the sugar while still warm.
Fill a piping bag with jam and insert it into another piping bag with a long nozzle.
Fill the jam from the ringside until the jam is slightly oozing out. Enjoy
