Cooking steps

Sourdough Salted Maple Long Johns 🍁🍩

Step 1: Make the dough

Mix warm milk and sourdough starter in a stand mixer. Add butter, egg yolks, flour, sugar, and salt. Knead with the dough hook until smooth and elastic, about 17 minutes, until it passes the windowpane test.

Step 2: Bulk ferment

Cover the dough and let rise in a warm spot until doubled, about 5–6 hours at 78–80°F.

Step 3: Shape

Roll dough out to 1/2-inch thickness and cut into Long John shapes. Cover and let rise until puffy, about 2 hours.

Step 4: Fry

Heat 2–3 inches of oil to 350°F. Fry donuts for 1–1½ minutes per side until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.

Step 5: Make the maple glaze

Mix butter, maple syrup, powdered sugar, and salt until smooth. Dip cooled Long Johns into the glaze and let set. Enjoy! 🍁
