Preparation:
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix well.
- Pour the liquid mixture into the flour mixture and stir until all the ingredients are combined and you have a smooth dough.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface until it is smooth and pliable.
- Roll out the dough with a rolling pin until it is about 1/2 inch thick.
- Use a donut cutter or glass to cut out circles of dough and a smaller cutter or lid to make holes in the center of each circle, forming donuts.
- Heat oil in a frying pan to 180°C (350°F). Fry the donuts in the hot oil until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain them on kitchen paper.
- While the donuts are still hot, dip them into the prepared glaze. To make the glaze, mix the icing sugar with enough water (and coloring if desired) to make a thick glaze.
- If desired, decorate the donuts with sprinkles or any other decorations of your choice while the glaze is still wet.
- Allow the donuts to cool and the glaze to harden before enjoying them. Ready! Now you have some delicious Homer Simpson style donuts to enjoy at home. I hope you like them!
