I believe the reason Claire was having such a hard time achieving the classic KK doughnut texture is because she neglected to take into consideration the fact that KK proofs their dough in a proofing box which controls the humidity. Humidly plays a huge role in proofing dough which is why I’m surprised she missed that aspect of it. She gave it a valiant effort. Well done, Claire! They looked amazing!
We can't get Krispy Kreme in the lower Keys so I made this recipe. My neighbors were blown away and loved these doughnuts. The texture was exquisite and some thought they were better than Krispies. Soooooo good. Thanks for this valuable video.
36:20 How to Make Gourmet Krispy Kreme Doughnuts Base dough: 30 oz. all purpose flour 0.5 oz kosher salt 2 oz honey 1 packet active dry yeast 4 oz unsalted butter cut into small pieces Liquid mixture: 4 oz. egg (2 large eggs) 2 oz. honey 1 oz vegetable oil 1 tbsp vanilla extract 16 oz. tepid whole milk In the bowl of a large stand mixer w/ a dough hook, combine all base dough ingredients. Make a well in the center of the bowl. Whisk liquid mixture ingredients together in a separate bowl. Pour the mixture into the well and mix on low until a shaggy dough forms. Increase speed and continue mixing until dough is smooth, supple, and no longer sticky. Gather the dough into a ball, flour all over, and place into a clean bowl, covered. Let it sit at room temperature until nearly doubled in size, then transfer bowl to refrigerator and chill until cold (preferably overnight). Scrape the dough onto a floured surface. Working quickly and flouring as needed to prevent sticking, roll out to 1/2" thickness. Use two circle cutters to punch out 3 1/4" donuts, with 1 1/4" cutout, fitting them as closely as possible to maximize yield. Arrange donut on its own square of parchment paper and allowed to proof at room temperature until puffed (could be as soon as 10 minutes). Fill a dutch oven 1/3 of the way up with neutral oil (e.g. vegetable oil) and heat to 325°F. Working in batches, fry the donuts, turning once, until they're golden brown all over except for a pale ring around the sides (3-4 minutes). Let cool on a wire rack. Glaze: 600 grams powdered sugar Pinch of kosher salt 2 tsps. vanilla extract 30 grams refined coconut oil 150 grams whole milk Whisk until smooth. Pour slowly over cold donuts, covering completely. Let glaze set at room temperature.
For those who wants the final recipe 36:21 | ps: it's very nice to watch the entire process of trying and error to get to the final recipe moment. But if like me you want to make yourself later, this timestamp is really useful
DJ Metcalf I'm Vietnamese and my grandparents actually do have war flashbacks... I know you meant well just please be more mindful. I know there's not a lot of Vietnamese people around but it does deeply affect most of us. Please don't joke about it. Thank you =^-^=
Krispie Kreme donuts were first made in Winston Salem, NC. Our stores make them in-house and you can watch the process. When a new batch is ready, they flip on a sign that says, “Hot and Ready.” A fresh hot Krispie Kreme is mind blowing!
I have worked for KK before, on their machines as maintenance and as janitorial. I loved working for them. Fun environment, learned a ton. My little fact is: They only use natural mineral oil for the cutters and racks. :)
I'm SO GLAD you noticed how amazing the texture is! I've always noticed the unreal not overly oily but super soft texture, they have. It's truly amazing and trying to explain that to others makes me seem like a foody snob, when i'm really a foody SUPER NERD/GEEK. It saddens me that Krispy Kream is always struggling when they have such an amazing product. Even if you don't LOVE the flavor the texture is impressive BUT i love them both. They're like the perfect doughnut/cake/cloud mix.

Just saw this. Loved it! If you want the glazed sheen like Crispy Creme then, take the hot donuts right out of the fryer, dip them in the glaze and set on a cooling rack until dry. The hot donut will "melt" and dry the glaze on the donut skin. It improves the adhesiveness and thins the glaze out just enough to form that shiny sheen.

My mom was a great baker; her advice always make it according to the recipe the first time, then change ONE thing at a time until you are happy with the results. I have one basic cookie recipe that I can adapt into a variety of different flavors. 400 degree F. 7-9 minutes, could also be 350 and longer bake, shorter bake (depending on how you like the texture of your cookies) 1 cup Butter, 3/4 cup sugar, 2 cups flour, 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1 tsp extract (almond, maple, hazelnut are ones I have tried). I have replaced a 1/2 of the butter with peanut butter, also used Nutella and cut back on the sugar. I have also replaced 1/2 the butter with a mashed up banana. maybe try pumpkin? The possibilities are endless.

The Bon Appetit channel is right up there with the Try Guys and Who's Line is it Anyway? as my most reliable pain reduction channels to turn to on bad days. THANK YOU! ) I totally LOVE Claire.

When I was about 7, me and my mom stopped in to a KK in Mobile, Al. It was late and empty, and the lady working took me back into the kitchen to see them made. When they came thru the glaze, she handed me one and said “ that’s the freshest one You’ll ever have”. Best moment for me the kid...can’t eat them now at 65. Too much goodness ha ha.

( I'm a disabled woman, 64 yrs old with 3 severe chronic pain diseases. I'm exceptionally lucky enough to have a husband who cooks for us. Laughter, I've discovered, is one of the most effective "pain reduction methods" at my disposal and I've maintained a good sense of humor through this all. The Bon Appetit channel is right up there with the Try Guys and Who's Line is it Anyway? as my most reliable pain reduction channels to turn to on bad days. THANK YOU! ) I totally LOVE Claire.
Have a nice day maam :)
Your comment warmed my heart. I hope your days are full of joy and love. ❤️
Keep the laughter abundant, Ma'am! Best wishes to you and your husband.
If you need another thing to laugh at, the British panel show Would I Lie to You? is very good.
Ayyyyyyy a woman after my own heart. The Try Guys are my other favorite youtubers. Also, Emmy Made in Japan is very nice, & Mikey Chen (Strictly Dumpling). ❤
So glad she moved on to doing her own thing. Love her creations and experiments.
Rhoda: "you nailed it on the first try"
Me: *looks at time left* 25 minutes. "Oh no Claire."
laughed OUT loud so funny. Thank you
I’m developing a major crush on Chris Morocco and these episodes where he’s so affirming of his coworkers are not helping my situation.
same
Welcome to the club. We have meeting on tuesdays
@@Reggie_la SEE YOU THEN
I have a crush on everyone in the test kitchen 😂😂😂
@@keylagalindo9208 bisexual mood
EVERYTIME
Claire: “I just really thought..”
*sad music starts playing*
Lol stay optimistic queen!!!!
I was thinking about using this method of dough to make cinnamon rolls. We will see how it turns out. Love Claire and her resilience
"Why do donuts have holes?"
*Cuts to Andy being shook*
I would die for this man.
I was hoping so badly for a "i DONUT know"
@Kala Thomas 11:30
Everyone just casually ignoring the fact that she cut her hair and has an engagement ring on...
Yessss!! Exactly what I was thinking!!
Same!!! 😂
mhm... until her hair and the hair pulled back is shorter.
I thought the same, but 16:45 shows her hair is in one of those fancy french braids, so I'm not sure.
@@sundaynightdrunk wish we could get her to reply! lol It looked nice shoulder length I thought.
Chris: It's not on a tilt head. It has more power. It's buttery smooth. They thought of everything
1 minute later
Stand Mixer: *VIOLENTLY GYRATING*
UNDERRATED COMMENT
It was angry it had been ignored for so long!
DOUGH'S GOT NOWHERE TO HIDE
Those wolf stand mixers are $700+
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
33:16 That cream oozing out of the side of the donut is definitely an endorsement that Claire's donut is awesome!
"I worked just hard enough to feel like I earned it but not so hard that I wanted to throw myself off a cliff"
Claire's existential crisis whenever she gets an easy gourmet makes
I love when Rhoda comes in. She's like both the devil and the angel on Claire's shoulder, simultaneously.
Chris’s compliments are the best, he’s so wholesome
These video's kept me sane during the corona/quarantaine time
Ok people, did anyone else notice Claire's engagement ring?
*_Did our Claire get engaged??!_*
I noticed that too!!!
OMG YASS QWEEEEEEEN
Wait wait it looks like a wedding band !!!
Brad finally took his shot👏🏿👏🏾👏🏿
She wore shiny gold earrings to go with her new RING and she got her hair cut, too! And... she kicked butt on the donuts! CONGRATS and Best Wishes, Claire! We love you!!!
SHE CUT HER HAIR ON DAY 3 AND IT LOOKS SO GOOD
Claire talking about "that ring" like Donut Gollum, however, I'm more distracted by that ring on her finger.
6:30 How they are formed did catch me !!!! Love that she was caught up on that part also !! :)
Competing stars of this episode:
Claire's engagement ring, Krispy Kreme doughnuts and butt-or-nut squash (g-string optional)
"why do donuts have holes?"
Andy's brain: ERROR 404
why 404? people tend to mention this error code, but it does not suit all cases
@@acryliq It's the most common
Just saying but it has holes to make the inside cook faster or cook easier idk maybe tho
Maybe 502
@@proam100 Maybe 500
I feel we see Claire through so many moments in this one, she gets engaged, cuts her hair, successful high fives with her right hand :')
I’ve seen so many of this girls videos. She is a superstar for sure and laughing over the honey squeezing sounds. How can you not love her? ❤
claire: _finishes talking_
transition music drums: *"HEY YOU WANNA HEAR HOW LOUD I CAN PLAY?????"*
That happened just as i got to your comment.
Never change that, I love the drumming
I was literally napping when I decided to watch this and I thought I was dreaming
Dude, seriously.
Where even do they get the drum sounds?
I see a ring on Claire's engagement finger and I can hear the hearts breaking.
“Good for her”
Mine sure did
Megan Ripley I’m still sad that Brad isn’t single. I thought that he and Claire had good chemistry
She's fat ew no
Rowie Hazzah me tooooo
They really should include Claire being revealed what she's supposed to recreate in the episodes
Isak I would LOVE that!!!

When I was about 7, me and my mom stopped in to a KK in Mobile, Al. It was late and empty, and the lady working took me back into the kitchen to see them made. When they came thru the glaze, she handed me one and said “ that’s the freshest one You’ll ever have”. Best moment for me the kid...can’t eat them now at 65. Too much goodness ha ha.
When they poked the dough... all I’m wondering is “Did they wash their hands?” 😂😂😂
Pre cooked who cares
SAME😂
@@johnathanlilley4930 People who haven't worked in food service lol, they don't know what goes on behind the scenes
ME
Omg ME TOO!!
“It’s the butt-ernut...sorry did you get that”
“Well for the record I just spent 5 minutes making it a chive g string”
Omg girl we don’t deserve you
This has to become a meme, dude.
Jay Hensel7 I fricking love her
I need to see it with the chive G-string now!
That squash IS a gift.
I love the sad music when she has set-backs. It's like she's going to be voted off the island or put to death for not pleasing the Queen of Hearts.
They're getting their money's worth out of the sad piano song.
Same!! I was just thinking that 😂😂
The extrusion KK uses creates the specific perfectly round exterior shape as it is extruded outward and then sheered off on the inside.
There is a German word for what Claire is doing: "verschlimmbessern" - making it worse while trying to make it better.
The Germans have the perfect method for naming those impossible to name feelings/ actions and it's great
Do people actually use that word though? I've never heard it in my life. I mean maybe it was just not common where I lived... :)
@@lauriet2339 I'm sure it's like the word "schadenfreude" where those who know, use it. I haven't heard it before either, so this is just speculation
Laurie T It‘s one of those old words that are slowly dying out, but I do think it fits this situation perfectly. Let‘s bring back some of those words, they‘re actually really useful, lol
@@lauriet2339 I actually do use it quite frequently. Maybe I am surrounded by people who have a talent for "Verschlimmbessern"
Ring shaped food, Claire with ring, Definitely not a coincidence.
"back at it again at the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen"
*does a back flip* *hits sign*
Loveless, Drunk Baby LMAO
Underrated vine reference
I was thinking about that vine the whole time!!
One of my favorite vines of all time
35:32 like "I worked just hard enough to feel like I earned it but not so hard that I wanted to... throw myself off a cliff" I FELT THAT
