Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup warm milk (110°F)
- 1 large egg
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/2 cup mango puree
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 1-2 tbsp water (for glaze)
- 1/4 cup sesame seeds
How to Make Mango Glazed Donuts
- In a small bowl, combine warm milk and yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, and salt. Add the melted butter, egg, mango puree, and the yeast mixture. Mix until a dough forms.
- Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place it in a greased bowl, cover with a clean towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick. Cut out donut shapes with a donut cutter or two round cookie cutters.
- Place the donuts on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let them rise for another 30 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Allow them to cool on a wire rack.
- While the donuts cool, prepare the mango glaze. In a small bowl, mix powdered sugar with 1-2 tablespoons of water and 1/4 cup of mango puree until smooth.
- Once the donuts are cool, dip the tops in the mango glaze and then sprinkle with sesame seeds. Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.
Tips for the Best Results
- Ensure the milk is warm but not hot to activate the yeast properly.
- Knead the dough thoroughly for the best texture.
- Don’t skip the second rise; it makes the donuts fluffier.
- For extra flavor, toast the sesame seeds lightly before sprinkling them on.
Easy Variations
- Substitute the mango puree with other fruit purees like passion fruit or raspberry for a different flavor.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the dough for a warm spice touch.
- Drizzle a little chocolate over the glaze for a chocolate-mango fusion.
What to Serve With It
- Fresh fruit salad for a refreshing side.
- A cup of coffee or tea to complement the sweetness.
- Coconut whipped cream for a tropical twist.
- Yogurt topped with honey for a balanced treat.
