Ingredients:

• 1 batch of Basic Brioche Dough
• Oil for frying
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Sprinkles optional

Instructions:

Prepare the Basic Brioche Dough as per the recipe instructions

Roll out the dough on a floured surface to about 1/2-inch thickness

Use a round cutter to cut out donut shapes from the dough

You can also use a smaller cutter to remove the centers

Place the donuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and cover them with a clean kitchen towel

Allow them to rise for about 30 minutes, or until they have doubled in size

While the donuts are rising, heat the oil in a deep fryer or a heavy-bottomed pot to 350F 175C

Carefully add the risen donuts to the hot oil, a few at a time, and fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through

Remove the donuts using a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined tray to drain any excess oil

In a bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until you have a smooth glaze

Dip each donut into the glaze to coat it evenly, and place it back on the tray

If desired, top the glazed donuts with sprinkles while the glaze is still wet

Allow the glaze to set for a few minutes before serving

Enjoy your homemade Brioche Donuts!
