Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 packet (7g) instant yeast
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup whole milk, warmed
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups whole milk (for pastry cream)
  • ½ cup granulated sugar (for pastry cream)
  • 4 large egg yolks (for pastry cream)
  • ¼ cup cornstarch (for pastry cream)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract (for pastry cream)
  • Vegetable oil (for frying)
  • Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions

  1. In a stand mixer bowl, combine flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. Gradually add warmed milk and melted butter.
  2. Mix in eggs one at a time until incorporated. Knead the dough until smooth and elastic; cover and let rise until doubled (about 1 hour).
  3. For the pastry cream, heat whole milk until steaming. Whisk together sugar, egg yolks, cornstarch, and vanilla in another bowl.
  4. Slowly mix hot milk into the egg mixture while whisking. Return to saucepan; stir until thickened and mix in butter until creamy.
  5. Roll out risen dough to ½ inch thick; cut circles. Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat; fry dough circles until golden brown on both sides.
  6. Once cooled enough to handle, fill bomboloni with cooled pastry cream using a piping bag and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
