These are incredibly delicious! I made the recipe exactly as stated with a small exception in regards to the flour. I added the flour 1/2 cup at a time but once I put in all 5 cups it was still pretty sticky. I added another 1/2 cup or a whole cup can't remember. It's pretty humid here which may have been the issue. I don't think this is very time consuming. Here is what I did- heat up water in a mug and add the yeast. While waiting for yeast/water mixture to foam I poured the next set of ingredients into a bowl (I didn't mix yet though) and by that time the yeast was foamy. I then added it, mixed the ingredients together, added flour 1/2 cup at a time like it states and kneaded the dough and put it in an oiled bowl. I turned my oven on to 200 degrees and as soon as it was done I turned it off, put the dough on the top rack and closed the door to let it double (about an hour). I didn't cover with a towel. After I took the dough out of the oven and rolled it out (make sure it is 1/2 an inch thick- thicker than that and it's too much). I cut out the doughnuts with a doughnut cutter thing and let them sit for 1 hour and 30 minutes. They didn't double in size but a little bit. While I was waiting on them to rise is when I made the glaze. I put them in the oil (this is important step- make sure your oil isn't hotter than 350) and counted for 4-5 seconds and flipped, counted 4-5 more seconds and they were done. Just dip in glaze and let sit (if you don't eat them all!) until cooled
