Cooking Instructions!
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt.
In a saucepan, heat the milk until warm (not boiling). Remove from heat and stir in the melted butter. Let it cool for a few minutes.
Add the milk-butter mixture, eggs, and vanilla extract to the dry ingredients. Mix well until a soft dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes, until smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
Punch down the dough and roll it out to about 1/2 inch (1.25cm) thickness. Use a donut cutter or a round biscuit cutter to cut out donut shapes. Place the donuts on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Cover the donuts with a kitchen towel and let them rise for an additional 30 minutes.
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Bake the donuts for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
While the donuts are baking, prepare the maple glaze. In a bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, maple syrup, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Remove the donuts from the oven and let them cool slightly. Dip each donut into the maple glaze, coating both sides. Place them back on the baking sheet to allow the glaze to set.
Serve the maple glazed donuts warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
