Ingredients
Scale
For the Doughnut Puffs:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Vegetable oil for frying
For the Cinnamon-Sugar Coating:
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
For the Condensed Milk Drizzle:
- 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Make the doughnut puff batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and sugar. In a separate bowl, whisk the egg, whole milk, sweetened condensed milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined to form a smooth batter.
- Heat the oil: Pour about 2 inches of vegetable oil into a deep frying pan or pot and heat over medium heat to 350°F (175°C). Test the temperature by dropping a small amount of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and rise to the surface promptly.
- Fry the doughnut puffs: Using a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry the puffs in batches for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally to cook evenly until golden brown and cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Coat the doughnut puffs: In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. While the doughnut puffs are still warm, roll them thoroughly in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
- Make the condensed milk drizzle: Place the sweetened condensed milk in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat for 15-20 seconds until softened for easy drizzling. Drizzle the condensed milk evenly over the coated doughnut puffs.
- Serve: Serve the doughnut puffs warm to enjoy their fluffy texture, warm cinnamon sweetness, and creamy condensed milk drizzle for a delightful treat.
Notes
- Ensure the oil temperature is consistent at 350°F to achieve crispy, golden doughnuts without absorbing excess oil.
- Do not overmix the batter; stir just until combined to keep doughnuts light and fluffy.
- The doughnut puffs are best enjoyed fresh and warm but can be reheated gently before serving.
- Use a thermometer for accurate oil temperature for best frying results.
- Adjust cinnamon in the coating to suit your preference for spice level.
