Big-batch Bismarcks Recipe


Big-Batch Bismarcks Recipe
This is one of the best doughnut recipes I've ever made. These doughnuts can be filled with jelly, puiddings or cremes. Makes a big batch but doesn't take long for these to disappear!

Ingredients
  • 2 Tbsp. active dry yeast
  • 4 tsp. plus 1 cup sugar, divided
  • 1/2 cup warm water (110-115 degrees)
  • 4 cups warm milk (110-115 degrees)
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 1 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 11-12 cups all-purpose flour
  • Additional oil for deep-fat frying
  • Strawberr or -Raspberry Jelly or filling of your choice
  • Frosting and sprinkles, optional

Directions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, dissolve yeast and 4 tsp. sugar in warm water.
  2. Add the milk, eggs, oil, salt, remaining sugar and 8 cups flour until blended.
  3. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a soft dough.
  4. Divide dough in half.
  5. Turn onto a floured surface; knead until smooth and elastic, about 6-8 minutes.
  6. Place in two greased bowls, turning once to grease tops.
  7. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 1 hour.
  8. Punch the dough down.
  9. Turn onto a floured surface; roll out to 1/2" thickness.
  10. Cut with a floured 3-in. biscuit cutter.
  11. Place on greased baking sheets.
  12. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 30 minutes.
  13. In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375 degrees.
  14. Fry bismarcks, a few at a time, for 1 minute on each side or until golden brown.
  15. Drain on paper towels.
  16. Cool for 2-3 minutes.
  17. Cut a small slit with a sharp knife in one side of each bismarck; fill with about 1 tsp. jelly or filling.
  18. Decorate with frosting and sprinkles, if desired.
  19. Note: I use a pipe tip and pipe my filling into my bismarcks.
