Nonstick cooking spray
Butter for finishing (approximately 2 tablespoons)
Cinnamon sugar for finishing (If preparing your own, combine
¼ cup granulated sugar with 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon)
1. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and ½ teaspoon sugar in the warm milk.
Let stand 5 to 10 minutes, or until mixture is foamy.
2. Put ¾ cup of the flour, the remaining sugar, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg into
a large mixing bowl. Whisk to combine. Once yeast has proofed, add it to the
flour/sugar. Using a wooden spoon, stir to combine.
3. Whisk the egg, buttermilk and vanilla extract together and then slowly
mix into the flour mixture. Lightly dust a clean work surface with flour and
transfer dough to the surface, dusting dough lightly with flour. Use your
hands to knead, adding 1 teaspoon of flour at a time as necessary, to keep
dough from sticking to your hands. Add the butter, 1 piece at a time, until
all pieces have been mixed into the dough. Again, continue adding flour, 1
teaspoon at a time, to keep dough from sticking to your hands. The dough
should be tender and smooth, and when pulled should not break apart.
4. Form dough into a ball and put in a clean mixing bowl, cover with plastic
wrap and allow to rest for 1 hour. After 1 hour, gently turn dough over and
press dough down (do not punch). Cover and allow to rest for another hour.
5. Place the AirFryer Basket in the Baking/Drip Pan. Lightly coat with nonstick
cooking spray. On a lightly floured surface, divide the dough into 16 pieces.
Working with one piece at a time (keeping the others covered loosely with
plastic wrap), form each into a small ball and roll between hands to ensure
that it is smooth. Once rolled, cover piece loosely with plastic wrap. Repeat
with the remaining pieces of dough.
6. Once 8 doughnut bites have been formed, transfer them to the AirFryer
Basket and put into the oven in the upper position. Select AirFry with the
temperature set to 350°F for 5 minutes, until doughnuts just get a bit of
color at the edges. Repeat with remaining doughnuts.
7. While doughnuts are baking, melt additional butter in a small saucepan set
over low heat. Put cinnamon sugar in a shallow bowl. Reserve.
8. Remove doughnuts from oven and immediately brush with butter on all sides
and then gently toss in cinnamon sugar. Serve immediately.
