Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Rolling pin
  • Donut cutter or round cookie cutters
  • Frying pan or deep fryer

Ingredients

  • 250 g Manitoba flour
  • 250 g all-purpose flour
  • 2 units eggs
  • 200 g ricotta cheese
  • 130 g sugar
  • 12 g fresh brewer’s yeast
  • 120 g milk
  • 100 g chocolate chips
  • q.s. vanilla or vanillin for flavoring to taste

Instructions

  • Warm the milk slightly and dissolve the yeast and a pinch of sugar in it. Let sit for about 10 minutes until frothy.
  • In a large bowl, combine the two types of flour and sugar, whisking until evenly distributed.
  • Make a well in the dry ingredients, then add the activated yeast mixture, eggs, ricotta, and vanilla. Stir until a smooth batter forms.
  • Gently fold in the chocolate chips, being careful not to overmix.

Notes

The ricotta cheese adds a lovely creamy texture to the donuts. For a twist, try using Greek yogurt instead!
For a healthier option, consider baking instead of frying, or use whole wheat flour.
If freezing, wrap each donut individually to maintain quality, and reheat for a fresh taste before serving.
Adjust the amount of chocolate chips to your liking, but be cautious not to overload the batter for optimal rising.
