Method

1.In a small saucepan, combine milk, sugar and vanilla. Stir on low until sugar dissolves – do not boil. Remove from heat.
2.Add butter; stir to melt. Cool to lukewarm; whisk in egg and yolk.
3.In a large bowl, mix flour, yeast and salt together. Pour milk mixture over; stir until smooth. Cover; leave in a warm place 1 hour, until doubled in size.
4.Meanwhile, to make syrup, in a medium saucepan, combine all ingredients. Stir on low until sugar dissolves. Bring to boil; simmer, without stirring, 4-5 minutes, until pale. Set aside.
5.In a large saucepan, heat oil on high until a little dough sizzles as soon as it is added (160°C).
6.Shape doughnuts into 1 tablespoon-size quenelles (oval shapes). Drop into oil, 4-5 at a time; cook 4-5 minutes, turning, until golden brown and cooked through.
7.Drain on paper towel, then toss in cinnamon sugar while hot. Serve with lemon syrup.

To make cinnamon sugar, combine 1/4 cup caster sugar with 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
