In a bowl, mix warm milk, egg white, egg yolk, sugar, and yeast to start. Make sure to mix the ingredients well so that the flavors work well together.
Incorporating the Flour
Using a spatula, slowly add the all-purpose flour to the mixture until it is fully mixed in. Cover the dough and let it rest for 15 minutes so that the flavors can mix.
Introducing the Buttery Bliss
Mix salt and soft butter into the dough by kneading it until the butter is completely gone. Place the dough on a floured surface and knead it for about 15 minutes, or until it is smooth and elastic.
The Rise to Greatness
Put the dough in a bowl that has been greased, and set it somewhere warm for an hour. This important step makes sure that every bite has the right texture and flavor.
Shaping Your Donuts
Take the dough that has risen and punch it down. Knead it for one minute and then cut it into two pieces. For the classic donut shape, roll out each piece to a 9-inch diameter and cut it into triangles or rounds.
The Waiting Game
Cover your shaped donuts and let them rise again for 25 minutes. Adding this step makes your donuts fluffier and lighter.
The Sizzling Transformation
On both sides, fry the donuts over medium-low heat until they are a perfect golden brown. In this step, the magic happens: the outside gets crisp, and the inside gets soft and pillowy.
