Steps:

• Place potatoes in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil; Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid; set liquid aside to cool to 70°-80°. Mash potatoes; set aside 1 cup to cool to room temperature. (Refrigerate any remaining mashed potatoes for another use.), In bread machine pan, place the milk, eggs, shortening, sugar, salt, bread flour and yeast in order suggested by manufacturer, adding reserved cooking liquid and potatoes. Select dough setting (check dough after 5 minutes of mixing; some flour may remain on top; add 1 to 2 tablespoons water or flour if needed)., When cycle is completed, turn dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead in an additional 1/4 to 1/2 cup flour if necessary. Roll out to 1/2-in. thickness. Cut with a 2-1/2-in. doughnut cutter. Place on greased baking sheets; cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 25 minutes., Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Brush warm doughnuts with butter; dip in cinnamon-sugar.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Beat sugar and shortening together in a bowl using an electric mixer until creamy. Add milk, eggs, and vanilla extract; stir well. Stir in mashed potatoes. Add flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Stir using a sturdy spoon, as mixture will be thick. Refrigerate dough for 1 hour so that dough will be less sticky and easier to work with.
• Lightly flour a countertop and place plastic wrap on top of dough; roll out to desired thickness. Cut into strips or use a donut cutter to make traditional round donuts.
• Lower donuts carefully into the hot oil in batches. Fry until 1 side is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and continue frying until other side is golden, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining donuts.
• Transfer donuts to a wire rack to cool.

Steps:

• Have ready two parchment-lined baking pans. Place potatoes in a small saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain in a colander. Pass potatoes through a potato ricer or food mill and into a medium bowl; set aside.
• Place 1/4 cup warm water in a small bowl; sprinkle with yeast, stir gently, and let stand until creamy, 5 to 10 minutes. Using an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the milk, shortening, 1/4 cup sugar, and salt. Let stand until cooled to just warm. Add yeast mixture, reserved potatoes, and eggs; beat until combined. Fit mixer with the dough-hook attachment. Add 5 cups flour, and mix on medium-low speed until combined, adding more flour if necessary, until a smooth and elastic dough is formed, about 5 minutes. Transfer dough to a large, lightly greased bowl; cover. Let stand in a warm place until dough is doubled in size, about 55 minutes.
• Transfer dough to a lightly floured surface. Roll out to 1/2 inch thick. Using a 2 1/2-inch-diameter doughnut cutter, cut and place on prepared baking pans. Loosely cover with plastic wrap; let stand in a warm place until dough has risen by about one-third, about 30 minutes.
• Combine confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and remaining 6 tablespoons water in a medium bowl, stirring until smooth; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining 1/2 cup granulated sugar and cinnamon until well combined; set aside.
• In a large, low-sided saucepan over medium heat, heat oil until a deep-frying thermometer registers 375 degrees. Drop doughnuts into oil; fry in batches until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to several layers of paper towels to drain. Place drained doughnuts on a wire rack set over a baking pan. Dip half the doughnuts in glaze; return to wire rack. Roll remaining doughnuts in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until well coated.

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs well.
• 2. Beat in sugar and soft shortening.
• 3. Stir in flour, baking powder, salt, vanilla and mashed potato.
• 4. Chill dough for 1 hour.
• 5. Shape doughnuts and deep fry.
• 6. Glaze doughnuts or sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar when just out of the fryer.

Steps:

• Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg into a medium bowl.
• In a large bowl, cream the butter with an electric hand mixer on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 1-2 minutes. Add the granulated and brown sugars and the mashed potatoes and cream until combined. Add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
• Add half of the dry ingredients to the mashed potato mixture and mix on medium speed until mostly incorporated. Add the buttermilk, and mix until almost combined. Add the rest of the dry ingredients and use a spatula to finish mixing until just incorporated.
• Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for 1-2 minutes, adding up to ¼ cup (30 g) more flour as needed until the dough is cohesive and no longer sticky.
• Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough to ½ inch (1 ½ cm) thick, flouring the dough as needed.
• Use a 3-inch (7 cm) round cutter to cut out donuts. Use a 1-inch (2 ½ cm) round cutter to cut out holes from the centers. Set the donuts and holes on a baking sheet. Re-roll the dough scraps and cut out more donuts. Refrigerate the donuts and holes until ready to fry.
• Heat the canola oil in a large pot fitted with a deep fry thermometer over medium heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C). Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and place nearby.
• In a medium bowl, mix together the sugar and cinnamon. Set near the wire rack.
• Working in batches, fry the donuts and holes in the hot oil for about 2 minutes per side, until deep golden brown. The donut holes will take less time than the donuts. Transfer to the wire rack to cool for 1 minute, then carefully toss in the cinnamon sugar.
• Eat warm, or let cool completely.
• Enjoy!
