Kefir donuts in the oven like grandma’s

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 40 mins

1. STEP 1

   

   How to bake donuts with kefir in the oven? Measure out the required ingredients. They should be at room temperature. Therefore, get kefir, milk and butter in advance. The butter should be soft enough.

2. STEP 2

   

   Sift the flour through a sieve into a large bowl. Thanks to this, the flour will be enriched with oxygen. As a result, the baked goods will rise well and be fluffy. 2-3 tbsp. set the flour aside. It may be needed when kneading dough. Mix the rest of the flour with baking powder.

3. STEP 3

   

   In a convenient container, combine soft butter, salt, sugar and vanilla sugar.

4. STEP 4

   

   Grind everything to a smooth, homogeneous mass.

5. STEP 5

   

   Pour kefir and milk into the oil mixture.

6. STEP 6

   

   Mix everything well. There is no need to achieve uniformity of the liquid mass. Enough for the butter pieces to be evenly distributed throughout the milk mixture.

7. STEP 7

   

   Pour the sifted flour with baking powder into a bowl. Mix the dough first with a spoon. Then knead the dough with your hands. If it is too sticky, add the previously set aside flour in small portions while kneading, while mixing the dough.

8. STEP 8

   

   You may need a little more or less flour than the specified amount. Focus on the consistency of the dough. It should be homogeneous, soft, pliable, almost not sticking to your hands.

9. STEP 9

   

   Divide the dough into equal parts, roll into balls of the desired size.

10. STEP 10

    

    Place the formed donuts on a parchment-lined sheet at a short distance from each other, as they will rise during baking.

11. STEP 11

    

    Bake the kefir crumpets in an oven preheated to 180C for about 20 minutes until golden brown. The baking mode and duration may be different. Focus on the operating features of your oven.

12. STEP 12

    

    Cool the finished donuts. If desired, sprinkle the baked goods with powdered sugar. Bon appetit!

I liked the donuts, thank you. Alternatively, you can fry the donuts in a frying pan.

I just baked these wonderful donuts with kefir in the oven like my grandmother did. I drink tea with still warm bun cookies and just enjoy their splendor! It only took me half an hour to prepare! The dough is kneaded very quickly, it turns out soft and pliable, and it is a pleasure to work with it. I rolled the balls and laid them out on parchment, the dough did not stick during the baking process, the products came off the sheet perfectly. They were baked for 20 minutes at 180 degrees. The crust turned out so crispy! And inside there is a very, very airy crumb, soft, porous! It looks like a cookie, but fluffy. I was completely satisfied with the sweetness, it was slightly sweet, not cloying. Excellent crumpets, tasty, airy and cooked quickly. I recommend!
