Topped with creamy icing and a dusting of cinnamon, a coffee-flavored Cappuccino Doughnut is the ideal accompaniment to the frothy beverage that inspired it. Powdered buttermilk can be purchased at grocery stores and specialty-food stores nationwide.
Ingredients
- 3¼ c. all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp. baking powder
- 1 tsp. baking soda
- 1 tsp. powdered buttermilk
- ¾ tsp. cinnamon
- ½ tsp. salt
- .67 c. milk
- ¼ c. unsalted butter
- ¼ c. instant espresso powder
- 2 large eggs
- ¾ c. sugar
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 4½ c. Vegetable oil for frying
- 1 recipe Creamy Frosting
Directions
- Make the batter: Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, powdered buttermilk, cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl and set aside. Combine milk and butter in a small bowl; add espresso powder and stir until dissolved; set aside. Whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl until thick -- about 2 minutes. Using a wooden spoon, alternately incorporate the flour and milk mixtures into the egg mixture until well combined. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
- Make the doughnuts: Turn the dough out onto a generously floured work surface. Flour the dough and roll it out to about 3/4 inch thick. Cut doughnuts out of the dough using a 3-inch doughnut cutter and transfer them to a baking sheet. Gather dough scraps, reroll, and repeat cutting doughnuts until all dough is used. Chill doughnuts for 30 minutes.
- Fry the doughnuts: Heat about 4 inches of vegetable oil in a large deep skillet fitted with a thermometer over medium-high heat until oil reaches 350 degrees F. Fry the doughnuts three at a time for about 2 minutes per side or until golden. Remove doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain on a wire rack. Repeat with remaining doughnuts. Once cooled, top doughnuts with Creamy Frosting, sprinkle with cinnamon, and serve immediately.
