Dissolve yeast in 1/4 cup warm water; set aside.
Combine egg and 1/2 cup water; set aside. Position knife

milk
powder, butter or margarine and salt and top with cover.
Process 10 seconds or until well mixed. With processor run-
ning, pour yeast mixture and egg mixture through food chute
in
a slow steady stream; process 5 seconds or until dough pulls

to 4 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Place dough in a
greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover and let rise in a
warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 1 hour and 30
minutes
or
until doubled in bulk. Punch dough down and turn out onto a
lightly floured board; let rest 15 minutes. Roll dough out
to
3/4-inch thickness; cut with a 2 1/2-inch doughnut cutter.
Place doughnuts on a lightly floured surface. Cover and let
rise in a warm place (85 degrees), free from drafts, 30
minutes or
until doubled in bulk.
Heat 2 to 3-inches of oil to 375 degrees, drop in 2 to 3
doughnuts at a time. Fry 30 seconds or until golden brown on
one side; turn and cook other side 30 seconds. Drain well.

wire
racks. Yield: 16 doughnuts.
