One thing is common for Harry Potter fans – they always wish they could get a Hogwarts ticket! And when they don't get a Hogwarts ticket, they make the kitchen a little magical. If you have a craze for doughnuts and love the world of Harry Potter, then this recipe is the perfect combo for you. Imagine – freshly fried Krispy Kreme style doughnuts, on top of which the sparkle of the colours of Harry Potter houses… it sounds absolutely magical, doesn't it?

Let’s , grab your kitchen wand and let’s make “Magical Donuts”!
Ingredients (items needed for magic):
2 cups all-purpose flour (maida)

1/4 cup sugar

1 packet active dry yeast

1/2 cup warm milk

2 tbsp melted butter

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

Pinch of salt

2 cups powdered sugar (for glaze)

1-2 tbsp milk (for consistency of glaze)

Edible glitter or colored icing (Harry Potter houses colors – red, green, yellow, blue)
Step-by-Step Recipe
1. Preparing the dough – the first step of magic
First of all, add sugar to warm milk and dissolve yeast in it. After 5-10 minutes when bubbles start appearing, it means the yeast is activated. Now add melted butter, vanilla extract and egg to it and whisk well.
Now add flour and a little salt and make a soft, sticky dough. Place this dough in a large bowl and let it rise for 1-2 hours, so that it doubles in size. (Exactly the way Harry Potter spells grow).
2. Shaping – The Magic Form of Donuts
When the dough has doubled, punch it lightly to release the air. Now roll it out with a rolling pin till 1/2 inch thick. Make the perfect doughnut shape using a doughnut cutter or 2 round cutters (one large and one small). Do not forget to remove the small round piece from the center – these too can be fried and made into mini doughnut bites!
3. Frying – Crispy Golden
Heat the oil in a kadai or deep pan. Fry the doughnuts on medium flame until both sides are golden brown. After frying, take them out on a kitchen towel and let the extra oil soak.
4. Glazing – Magic of Hogwarts Houses
Now add powdered sugar and a little milk to a bowl and create a smooth glaze. Dip each doughnut in the glaze, then decorate with instant edible glitter or colored icing. You can use the colors of Harry Potter houses:
Gryffindor – Red & Gold
Slytherin – Green & Silver
Hufflepuff – Yellow & Black
Ravenclaw – Blue & Bronze
This will make your doughnuts sparkle like the desserts in Hogwarts Great Hall!
5. Serve and Enjoy – Magic Complete!

And that’s it, your homemade Krispy Kreme style Harry Potter doughnuts are ready! Now sit with your family and friends and enjoy the Hogwarts feel.
