    Title: Air Fryer Polish Paczki
    Categories: Breads, Snacks
    Yield: 20

    2 c Whole milk; warm(110oF/43oC)
    1/2 ts Active dry yeast
    3/4 c + 1 ts granulated sugar;
    - divided
    6 c (to 7 c) A-P flour; divided
    1 lg Egg
    4 Egg yolks
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    1 ts Salt
    4 tb Unsalted butter; melted,
    - cooled
    Jam; for filling
    Custard; for filling
    Powdered sugar; to coat

    Pour 2 cups warm milk into bowl of a stand mixer. Stir
    in 4 1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast and 1 teaspoon
    granulated sugar. Let stand for 5-10 minutes, or until
    it has become bubbly.

    Stir in 2 cups of flour to the mixture until the batter
    becomes smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and set in a
    warm spot for 30 minutes. The mixture should have risen
    and become bubbly.

    In a bowl, whisk 1 egg and 4 egg yolks for 3-4 minutes,
    until it becomes frothy. Add 3/4 cup sugar, 1 teaspoon
    vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon salt, and whisk until
    smooth.

    Add the egg mixture to the dough and mix on medium-low
    speed with the dough hook attached until mostly
    combined. Stir in 4 tablespoons melted butter. Gradually
    add 3-4 more cups of flour to the mixture and knead
    until a very soft dough comes together. It will be a
    sticky dough and will not form a ball. Transfer the
    dough to a lightly greased bowl, cover with plastic
    wrap, and set in a warm spot until it has doubled in
    size, about 1 hour.

    Remove the dough from the bowl and turn out onto a
    floured work surface. Sprinkle flour on the dough and
    roll it out to 2-inch thickness. With a glass, metal can
    or biscuit cutter cut out circles and place on a
    parchment-lined cookie sheet. Do this with all of the
    dough. Cover dough circles with a towel and let rise for
    one hour.

    Heat air fryer to 350oF/175oC for 3 minutes. Line the
    bottom of the air fryer with parchment paper and place
    3-4 dough circles in at a time (do not line the air
    fryer with parchment paper and put it inside without the
    donuts). Bake for 4-6 minutes, flipping halfway through.
    Check paczki often to make sure they aren't burning. You
    want a light golden color.

    Remove from air fryer and place on a paper towel lined
    platter and let cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar and
    fill with fruit jams or custard. Enjoy within one day.
