Air Fryer Donut Recipe

March 30, 2021

Use a standard mixer with a dough hook, stirring the milk, 1tsp sugar and yeast.
Let the mixture rest for 10 minutes, until it forms a foamy consistency.
Add sugar, salt, egg, melted butter and 2 cups of flour to the mixture.
Mix on a low speed, adding the remaining cup of flour until the dough is smooth.
Let the dough rest in a non-stick bowl, covering it with a plastic wrap.
Place the dough in a warm place, letting it rise until it’s doubled in size.
Once it’s risen, turn the dough onto a floured kitchen bench, gently flattening out to 2 centimetres in size.
Use a coffee cup to cut 10 donut shapes, with a hole-punctured centre.
Transfer the donuts to a non-stick sheet of paper, while your Mistral Air Fryer is preheating at around 176 Degrees Celsius.
Carefully transfer donuts to the Mistral Air Fryer, sprayed with a light oil coat.
While your donuts are turning a golden-brown, you can begin to make the finishing glaze.
Heat the remaining butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in icing sugar and vanilla extract until smooth.
Remove this mixture from heat and stir in hot water one tablespoon at a time until smooth.
Once complete, dip hot donuts in the glaze using a fork, until it’s completely covered.
Let the excess glaze drip from the donuts, placing them onto a cooling rack.
Sprinkle crushed pistachio nuts over the glazed donuts.
