3. How to Make Honey Glazed Donuts
Instructions for Making Donut Dough
- Step 1: Rinse and chop the sweet potatoes before steaming to ensure quick cooking. Steam the sweet potatoes for about 20 minutes until tender. Then, grind them into a smooth paste.
- Step 2: Mix glutinous rice flour, rice flour, sugar, baking powder, and sweet potatoes in the prepared ratio. Gradually add warm water and knead the dough until smooth.
- Step 3: After kneading the dough until smooth, let it rest for 1 hour.
Instructions for Making Honey Glazed Donut Filling
- Step 1: Soak mung beans in warm water for about 20 minutes, then boil with 1/2 teaspoon of salt (The water level should be about 1 fingertip higher than the mung beans). Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer until the beans are soft. Turn off the heat when the beans are mushy.
- Step 2: After boiling, grind the mung beans into a smooth paste. Then, mix them with sugar and coconut oil in a pan. Cook until the mung bean mixture thickens, then turn off the heat and mix in shredded coconut.
Instructions for Shaping the Donuts
- Step 1: Divide the dough into small portions, about 12-15g per dough shell. Similarly, divide the mung bean filling and shape into balls of about 12g each.
- Step 2: Flatten the dough and place the mung bean filling inside, then wrap it up. Finally, use your hands to roll the dough into round or flat shapes as desired.
Achieving Crispy Texture: To ensure a satisfying crunch, immerse the doughnuts in moderately heated oil. Flip them continuously for even cooking. Note: Fry a small batch at a time to prevent sticking.
- Golden Brown Perfection: Fry until the doughnuts turn a deep golden hue. Test for crispiness by gently tapping with chopsticks.
Glazing Options: For sugar-glazed doughnuts: Mix 120g of sugar with 60ml of water until the sugar dissolves completely (most water should evaporate). Dip the doughnuts and rotate until the glaze sets. For honey-glazed doughnuts: Heat 120ml of honey or 120g of palm sugar until it simmers and thickens, then coat the doughnuts evenly. Rotate for 3-4 minutes.
