  • 125 ml Milk
  • 1 Organic Lemon
  • 50 g Butter or margarine

  • 50 g Icing sugar
  • 1 TABLESPOON pink sugar crumble
  • 1-2 TABLESPOONS golden-white sugar beads
  • 7-10 Tbsp Flour
  • 1 Disposable piping bag

Directions

  1. 1

    Put the flour in a bowl, make a depression in the middle and crumble the yeast. Add 1 tablespoon of sugar. Heat the milk, pour about 1/3 of it into the hollow to form the yeast and mix it with some flour from the edge to form a pre-dough.

  2. 2

    Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Wash the lemon thoroughly, dab dry and finely grate the peel. Dice fat. Add egg, fat, rest milk, 45 g sugar and lemon peel to the pre-dough. Knead well with the dough hooks of the hand mixer for 3-4 minutes.

  4. 4

    Cover and leave to rise in a warm place for about 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Place the dough on a well floured work surface, knead briefly once again and roll out to a thickness of approx. 1 cm. Cut out donuts with a donut cutter (approx. 5 cm Ø). Place on a floured baking tray.

  6. 6

    Knead the rest of the dough again and again, roll out and cut out until the dough is used up. Cover the donuts and let them rise for 5-10 minutes.

  7. 7

    Heat the oil in a high pot to approx. 150 °C. Carefully place donuts in the hot oil in portions and fry for 1-2 minutes until golden brown, turning them over. Lift out with a skimmer, drip off on kitchen paper and allow to cool.

  8. 8

    Turn some donuts still hot in 50 g sugar and let them cool down.

  9. 9

    Coarsely chop the chocolate coating and melt separately over a warm water bath. Squeeze 1/2 lemon. Mix icing sugar and approx. 1 tbsp. lemon juice to a smooth, thick glaze. Decorate some donuts with icing and pink sugar crumbles.

  10. 10

    Dip the rest in dark chocolate, decorate with white chocolate or sprinkle with golden-white sugar pearls. Leave to dry.
