Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup whole milk
2 large eggs
2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup strawberry jam
1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced
1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar (for glaze)
2–3 tbsp milk (for glaze)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract (for glaze)
Oil for frying (or baking option below)
Instructions:
Prepare the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Mix wet ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed. Do not overmix.
Heat oil: Heat oil in a large pot to 350°F (175°C). If baking, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a donut pan.
Form donuts: Spoon batter into a piping bag and pipe into donut molds or shape small rings for frying.
Cook: Fry donuts for about 1–2 minutes per side or bake for 10–12 minutes until golden brown. Let cool on a wire rack.
Make the filling: Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and strawberry jam until smooth and fluffy. Fold in diced strawberries.
Fill the donuts: Using a small knife or piping nozzle, fill the cooled donuts with the strawberry cheesecake mixture.
Make the glaze: Whisk confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Dip the tops of donuts into the glaze and let them set for a few minutes.
Serve: Top with extra strawberry pieces or a drizzle of jam for a bakery-style finish.
