  2. In a separate jug, combine milk, melted butter, one egg, and the yeast.
  3. Mix the dough on high for about three minutes.
  4. Grease your bowl and allow the dough to rise for two hours.
  5. Roll out the dough to about an inch thickness and cut out your donuts.
  6. Place your donuts onto a baking sheet with some parchment paper.
  7. Brush the donuts with some melted butter and allow them to rise for another 45 minutes.
  8. Preheat your air fryer to 180 degrees Celsius or 350 Fahrenheit.
  9. Brush the basket with some oil and gently place four donuts into the basket.
  10. Cook these for exactly three minutes.
