Thyme Ring Doughnuts with Orange glaze

Recipe Courtesy @Robertsonsherbs&spices

Ingredients

Doughnut dough:
  • 500g bread flour
  • 2 tsp Roberton’s Dried Thyme
  • 55g castor sugar
  • 10g (1 sachet) instant yeast
  • pinch of salt
  • 1 cup milk
  • 100g melted butter
  • 3 egg yolks

Orange and thyme glaze
  • 2 cups (500ml) icing sugar, sifted
  • 2-3 tbsp orange juice


Method
  1. To make the dough, combine all the dough ingredients to form a soft dough.
  2.  Knead for 8-10 minutes or until smooth.
  3. Cover and set aside for 1 hour.
  4. Sprinkle a clean surface with cake flour and roll the dough out to 1cm thick.
  5. Use a 8cm cookie cutter to cut out rounds then use a shot glass to cut a hole out the middle.
  6. Place the rings on a greased baking sheet, leaving enough space for the dough to rise.
  7.  Cover loosely with clingwrap and leave in a warm place until doubled in size.
  8. Heat the oil in a pot or deep-fryer until 180C (a cube of bread dropped into the oil should brown within 5 seconds), working in batches, fry the risen doughnuts on one side (about 3-4 minutes) until golden, then turn them over and cook on the other side for 2-3 minutes.
  9. Remove the doughnuts from the oil and drain on paper towel. Allow to cool completely.
  10. To make the glaze, combine the icing sugar, zest and enough orange juice to form a thick glaze.
  11. Dip the tops of the doughnuts into the glaze and allow to set.

Enjoy !

Almond and Honey Brittle Ingredients 1/4 cup almond oil 4 cups sliced blanched almonds 2 cups sugar 1 cup honey 1/4 cup water Method Preheat the oven to 204C. Grease a baking sheet with the almond oil. Place the almonds on a separate baking sheet and toast them in the oven until light golden brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside. In a medium, very heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the sugar, honey, and water and cook over medium-high heat until the sugar liquefies, then turns light golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. It should register 310 degrees Fahrenheit on a candy thermometer; this is referred to as the “hard-crack” stage. Do not stir, but brush the sugar crystals off the inside of the pan with a wet pastry brush as necessary. Once the sugar begins to brown (to the color of a football), remove the pan from the heat (watch very carefully, as the sugar can burn quickly). Once the caramel is off the heat, add the almonds to the pot and stir quickly to i...
