Ingredients:
Instructions:
1. In a small saucepan, heat 1.25 cups of milk until warm but not boiling (about 110°F/43°C).
2. Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in 1 tsp yeast. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy.
3. In a large mixing bowl, add 1/2 cup butter and 3/4 cup sugar. Beat the mixture until it is light and fluffy.
4. Add 2 tbsp honey, 1 egg, and 2 tbsp vanilla extract to the butter mixture. Mix well until everything is combined.
5. Gradually add the yeast-milk mixture to the bowl and mix until well incorporated.
6. Slowly add in the flour, a little at a time, and mix until a dough forms. It should be soft and slightly sticky.
1. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.
2. Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1-1.5 hours or until it has doubled in size.
1. In a double boiler or microwave, melt 1/2 cup dark chocolate with 1 cup heavy whipping cream until smooth.
2. Stir in 1 tsp cinnamon and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
1. Once the dough has risen, punch it down to remove excess air and turn it out onto a floured surface.
2. Roll the dough out to about 1/2-inch thickness.
3. Use a round cutter (about 3 inches in diameter) to cut out circles of dough.
4. Place a spoonful of the cooled chocolate filling in the center of each dough circle.
5. Fold the edges of the dough up over the filling and pinch them together to seal. Roll gently to form a smooth round ball.
1. Preheat your air fryer to 350°F (175°C).
2. Spray the air fryer basket with non-stick cooking spray or lightly brush it with oil.
3. Place the bomboloni in the basket, making sure they are not touching.
4. Air fry for 8-10 minutes or until they are golden brown. You may need to do this in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
1. While the bomboloni are still warm, roll them in a mixture of sugar (as desired) and 1 tsp of cinnamon to coat.
1. Serve the bomboloni warm with a cup of coffee or tea. Enjoy the gooey chocolate center and the fluffy, sweet dough!
Tips:
- Yeast Activation: Make sure to activate your yeast properly by dissolving it in warm milk (about 110°F/45°C) along with a pinch of sugar. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until frothy to ensure your dough will rise effectively.
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Using ingredients like butter and egg at room temperature helps them to incorporate better into your dough, resulting in a smoother and more cohesive final product.
- Do Not Overcrowd the Air Fryer: When cooking the bomboloni in the air fryer, ensure they are spaced out evenly to allow for proper air circulation and even cooking. You may need to cook them in batches depending on the size of your air fryer.
- Creamy Filling: For an extra smooth and creamy filling, ensure the heavy whipping cream and dark chocolate are thoroughly melted and mixed together. You can use a double boiler or microwave in short bursts, stirring frequently.
- Sugar Coating: Roll the bomboloni in sugar while they are still warm after air frying. This helps the sugar stick better and gives them a delightful, slightly crunchy exterior.
Indulge in the melt-in-your-mouth goodness of Air Fryer Caramilk Bomboloni, a dessert that perfectly balances the sweetness of honey and cinnamon with the richness of dark chocolate and creamy filling. With the convenience of an air fryer, this recipe transforms traditional deep-fried bomboloni into a healthier yet equally indulgent treat. Enjoy them fresh and warm, straight from your air fryer, and savor the irresistible combination of flavors and textures.
