In a large bowl, mix bread flour, remaining sugar, and salt thoroughly.

Add the foamy yeast mixture and eggs to the dry ingredients and mix together.

Knead the dough on low for 4-5 minutes until slightly sticky, then gradually add soft unsalted butter while kneading for another 15 minutes.

Let the dough rest covered in a warm place for about an hour until doubled in size.

Punch down the dough and shape it using a round cutter for donuts and a smaller cutter for the holes.

Place shaped donuts on a lined tray and let them rise for at least 1 hour until puffy.

Heat oil to 150°C-160°C for frying.

Fry donuts for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown, then drain on a wire rack or paper towels.

Roll warm donuts in granulated sugar if desired.
