1. Choose fresh, high-quality ingredients
Use fresh flour, eggs, butter, milk, and yeast (or baking powder for donuts). If using yeast, always dissolve it in warm water or milk with sugar to activate it before adding it to the dough.

2. Knead the dough long
enough Knead until smooth and elastic, but be careful not to overwork the dough. A slightly sticky, soft dough will ensure fluffy and tender donuts.

3. Allow for adequate rising
time Allow the dough to rise in a warm place until it doubles in size. Once the donuts are carved out, let them rest for 10–15 minutes before frying for a fluffier texture.
