Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Glaze: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar, 1/4 cup multicolored sprinkles, 3 tablespoons of milk, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Set aside. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and kosher salt. (3 minutes)

03

Step

Combine Wet and Dry: In a separate small bowl, combine 1 cup of milk, the egg, and vanilla extract. Stir the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Add the melted butter and 1/4 cup multicolored sprinkles; mix until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix. (7 minutes)

04

Step

Heat the Oil: In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat at least 2 inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accurate temperature. (10 minutes)

05

Step

Fry the Donut Holes: Carefully scoop small, rounded tablespoons of dough into the hot oil. Fry the donut holes until golden brown, about 1 minute per side. Avoid overcrowding the pot to maintain oil temperature. (8 minutes)

06

Step

Drain and Cool: Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fried donut holes to a baking sheet or wire rack lined with paper towels to drain excess oil and cool slightly. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Glaze the Donut Holes: Place a wire rack over a baking sheet. Dip each donut hole into the prepared glaze, ensuring it's fully coated. Place the glazed donut holes onto the wire rack, allowing any excess glaze to drip off. (5 minutes)

08

Step

Serve: Serve warm and enjoy the explosion of flavor and texture. (1 minute)

For best results, use a deep-fry thermometer to monitor the oil temperature throughout the frying process.
If the dough is too sticky, add a tablespoon of flour at a time until it becomes manageable.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference for sweetness.
Donut holes are best enjoyed fresh. However, they can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
