Baked Jam Doughnuts - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    500 g plain flour
    1 pinch salt
    50 g caster sugar
    7 g instant yeast
    1 beaten egg
    250 ml lukewarm milk
    jam, of your choice
    50 g caster sugar, extra
    1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Preparation
    Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl. Stir in 50g sugar and yeast.
    Make a well in the flour. Add the beaten egg. Add milk and mix into a dough.
    On a floured board, knead the dough until soft - about 5 minutes. Divide the dough into 20 portions and roll into balls. Place on a greased baking tray, cover with clingwrap or a damp teatowel and leave the dough to double in size in warm place.
    Bake in a 220 degree celcius oven for 12 - 15 minutes or until well risen and browned. Cool slightly.
    Combine extra sugar and cinnamon.
    Make a small incision in the doughnut and fill with a teaspoon of jam (a syringe or narrow spoon works well). Brush lightly with water and roll into the cinnamon sugar.
