Chocolate Stuffed Donuts
Serves 8
Prep Time: 60 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Ingredients:
- 200g of plain flour plus extra for dusting
- Pinch salt
- 3 tbsp caster sugar plus an extra 1 tbsp
- 1 x (7g) sachet of instant yeast
- 3 eggs
- 80g butter, cubed and brought to room temperature
- 200g chocolate & hazelnut spread, like Nutella
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Method:
- Combine sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl.
- Place flour, salt, sugar, yeast and eggs into a mixer and mix on a medium speed until a sticky dough forms. Now add the butter, incorporate a few cubes at a time on a medium to low speed.
- Scrape donut batter into a piping bag and pipe 50g portions of dough into a patty pan.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over the top, and let it prove for 1 hour until it doubles in size. Transfer to the air fryer basket and spray with a little oil and fry at 180°C for 5-8 minutes.
- Place chocolate & hazelnut spread into a piping bag. Poke a hole in the centre of each doughnut with a sharp knife or the nozzle of a piping bag. Pipe a generous amount of the chocolate into each cavity. I like to eat them while they are still warm but they keep well for a few hours.
