Instructions

**Dough**
1. Warm the milk slightly in the microwave till lukewarm and mix the yeast in.
2. Combine the egg, sugar, and salt in a mixer bowl, then add in the milk-yeast mix.
3. Pour in the cooled melted butter followed by the flour.
4. Mix using a dough hook on low speed to combine until you get a ball of dough, then turn to high speed for about 5 to 10 minutes until the dough passes the windowpane test.
5. Leave the dough to rest for about 30 minutes to 1 hour.
6. Pour the dough out onto the table. Divide the dough into 5 portions of 55g for the doughnuts and 3 portions of 100g for the burger buns.
7. Roll the portioned doughs into smooth round balls, then leave them on a tray to proof until double the size (approximately 30 to 45 minutes).
8. Preheat the oven for the burger buns at 170°C, then bake the proofed buns for 18 to 22 minutes.
9. Prepare a pot with flavorless oil for the doughnuts and heat it up to 170°C.
10. Once the dough has proofed, carefully place 3 to 4 doughnuts at a time into the hot oil and cook each side for about 3 to 4 minutes until golden brown.
11. Remove from the oil and coat with cinnamon sugar or leave uncoated.
12. Let the doughnuts cool completely before piping in the filling.
