Important Notes

⚠️

Using fresh yeast is key for the best texture and rise in these donuts.

⚠️

Do not overcrowd the pan when frying; this will lower the oil temperature and result in greasy, soggy donuts. Fry in small batches of 3-4.

⚠️

The dough should be very soft and slightly sticky. Don't be tempted to add too much extra flour during kneading.

⚠️

Fill the donuts while they are still warm so the chocolate ganache becomes slightly melted and gooey inside.
