  • 1 packet (7g) instant yeast
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup whole milk, warmed
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups whole milk for pastry cream
  • ½ cup granulated sugar for pastry cream
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dough: In a bowl, mix flour, sugar, yeast, and salt. In another bowl, combine warmed milk, eggs, and butter. Pour into dry ingredients and stir until soft dough forms.
  2. Knead the Dough: On a floured surface, knead the dough for about 5-7 minutes until smooth.
  3. Let It Rise: Place dough in an oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm spot until doubled in size (about an hour).
  4. Make the Pastry Cream: Heat milk and sugar in a saucepan. Mix egg yolks with cornstarch; gradually whisk in warm milk mixture. Cook on low heat until thickened; stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Shape Bomboloni: Punch down risen dough; roll out to ½ inch thick and cut out circles.
  6. Fill Bomboloni: Fry until golden brown. Once cooled slightly, fill each with pastry cream using a piping bag.
  7. Serve: Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
