SOURDOUGH BOMBOLONI (DONUTS)
These aromatic, pillowy soft, and slightly sweet donuts are so delicious. The bolted hard red winter wheat, rum, lemon zest, and sourdough fermentation add complexity to the flavor, making rich or sweet fillings an option but not necessary.

Steps:
- Starter/Levain (8-12 hours before you plan to mix the dough)
- Mix and then briefly knead the ingredients for the sweet stiff starter. Place the starter ball in a container with space for tripling and cover.
- Dough Mixing
- Combine all of the dough ingredients in the bowl of a stand mixer and mix on low-med speed for about 10 minutes using a dough hook. Scrape down the sides of the bowl periodically and check on the dough texture after about 5 minutes. The dough should be a little sticky, but shouldn't come apart on your fingertips. Add more flour in small increments (2 Tbsp/17 grams) to get to a lightly sticky feel.
- If you want to hand mix the dough, start by using a bowl and spatula, and then move to slapping and folding the dough on a clean work surface. This slapping and folding video shows the progress of a similar sticky dough.
- Bulk Fermentation
- Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled/buttered container and cover it. After about 30 minutes, give the dough a quick stretch and fold to confirm the gluten is developing nicely and the hydration is manageable.
- Let the dough rise for at least 4 hours in a warm place, low 80s if possible. You might place the dough in your oven with the light on, use a Raisenne hot pad, or a proofing box. The dough should have expanded by between 75% and 100% before you move onto the next step (see photos in the gallery below).
- Dividing and Shaping
- Scrape the dough out of the bowl and onto a floured work surface.
- Roll the dough into a tube and divide it into 16 pieces (about 70-80 grams each).
- Form the dough pieces into balls and place them on a heavily floured baking sheet with about 2 inches between each ball.
- Final Proof
- Cover the baking sheet and let the donuts rise 2-4 hours, until doubled (see photo gallery below). My tray of dough was in a cooler environment for this second rise, and the final proof took 3 hours.
- Frying
- In a cold 4-6 quart Dutch oven or heavy deep saucepan, add oil until its about 2 inches deep.
- Heat the oil, checking the temperature frequently. You may want to lower the heat on your stove when the oil reaches 350°F because the temperature of the oil may continue to rise too quickly if you don't.
- Begin frying the donuts when the oil reaches 355°F and if the oil climbs over 370°F, pause and let the oil cool down.
- If your oil temp is below the suggested range, the donuts will not form a skin and will absorb oil. And if your oil temp is above the suggested range, the donuts will burn on the outside while the inside remains uncooked.
- Using a metal spatula or dough scraper, transfer 3-4 dough balls, one at a time, from the baking sheet into the hot oil.
- Fry the donuts for 2-3 minutes per side, flipping with tongs or a slotted spoon. Use the tip of your thermometer to pop any air bubbles that form on the donut surface.
- When both sides of the donuts are golden in color, use a slotted spoon to remove the donuts from the oil and drain off the excess oil, then place them on paper towels.
- Topping, Filling and Storing
- As soon as the donuts are cool enough to handle, roll them in granulated sugar.
- If you're going to fill the donuts, let them cool completely beforehand. You can then make a cuts in the sides of the donuts with a knife or chopstick, and fill the holes via a pastry bag with a cream piping tip, or you can cut the donuts completely in half on the horizontal and spread filling throughout the center of the donuts, for more of a sandwich style donut.
- Store the donuts covered at room temperature for several days.
- For freezing info, see the blog post above.
