80 g Dansukker Superfine Sugar

2 tsp Dansukker Vanilla Sugar
3/4 tsp salt
100 ml milk

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 200 °C.

Brush the doughnut tin with plenty of rapeseed oil.

Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, vanilla sugar and salt in a bowl.

Combine the milk and the lemon juice in a small bowl and stir.

Melt the butter. Add the milk, lightly beaten egg and melted butter to the dry ingredients and combine.

Pour the mixture in to reach halfway up the sides of the cavities. Piping the mixture into the cavities will make your life easier.

Bake at the bottom of the oven for about 6-8 minutes. Allow the doughnuts to cool for a few minutes, then remove them from the tray. Brush each cavity with the melted butter as you remove the doughnuts.
