Ingredients

250 g Plain Flour
100 ml Water warm
50 g Butter
2 tbsp Sugar
2 Eggs
½ tsp Yeast active dry
½ tsp Salt
Apricot Jam

Instructions

Add the sugar and the yeast to the water then set aside to allow the yeast to ferment
In another bowl beat the eggs until well combined
Cut the butter into small cubes then set aside
Once there are bubbles beginning to form on top of the yeast mixture add the eggs, salt and flour to the mixture then mix until a dough begins to form
Add the cubed butter gradually and begin to knead the dough with your hands until all the butter has been incorporated and the dough is glossy and smooth
Cover the bowl with clingfilm then allow to proof at room temperature for about 2 hours until doubled in size before punching down the dough and recovering and refrigerating overnight
Once ready remove the dough from the fridge and separate into ~70g pieces then shape each piece into smooth balls and place on a baking tray lined with parchment paper then dust with flour (see note 1)
Cover lightly and leave for 1 hour until doubled in size
Heat a pan with oil for deep frying until medium-hot ensuring that the oil is not too hot – to test this you can add a small ball of the dough into the pan, and it should rise with tiny bubbles surrounding it
Remove the doughnuts from the tray, ensuring that you do not deflate then gently add to the pan and fry for 3 minutes on easy side until golden brown
Remove from oil then place on a wire rack to allow any excess oil to drip away
Whilst still warm roll in icing sugar then set aside to cool before filling
Fill a piping bag with apricot jam then pipe until the doughnut is filled
Your apricot jam doughnuts are ready!

Notes

Note 1 – Be sure to leave plenty of room between each doughnut to allow them to proof
