Preparation

Step 1

Doughnuts:
Preheat an oven to 350°F. In the meantime, grease a doughnut pan with 12 doughnut moulds.
Mix together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt in a bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together the egg, milk, stout, melted butter and vanilla.
Add the wet ingredients to the dry and mix until a smooth batter forms.
Pour the batter into a piping bag with a large round piping tip. Pipe the batter into the mould, leaving a ¼-inch gap around the top to allow the doughnuts to expand.
Bake in a preheat oven for 20 to 22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a doughnut comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan a few minutes before removing to a wire rack for a few more minutes before decorating.
To decorate: Drizzle each doughnut with Milk Stout Ganache, then top with the Chocolate Oat Crumble.

Oat Crumble:
Preheat an oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Mix all of the ingredients together in a bowl.
Spread the mixture on the baking sheet and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the crumble appears dry.

Ganache:
Heat the chocolate, cream, and beer over a double broiler until the chocolate is completely melted and everything is evenly blended.
