Steps:
- Grapefruit Curd:
- Bring grapefruit juice to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and cook until reduced to 1/3 cup, 12-14 minutes. Let cool slightly.
- Whisk egg yolks, eggs, sugar, and salt in a medium heatproof bowl to combine. Whisk in grapefruit zest, lemon zest, lemon juice, and reduced grapefruit juice. Set bowl over a large saucepan of simmering water. Cook, whisking almost constantly, until curd is thickened, 6-8 minutes. Remove from heat and whisk in butter, adding a few pieces at a time.
- Transfer to a nonreactive bowl and press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto surface of curd. Chill until set up and very cold, at least 4 hours and up to 12 hours.
- Citrus Sugar:
- Combine sugar and zest in a small bowl. Let sit uncovered 12 hours to dry out. (You can also microwave on high in 15-second intervals, stirring and letting cool slightly between intervals, until dehydrated.)
- Transfer to a blender and blend until powdery. (Or, work zest into sugar with your fingers; just make sure to break up any clumps.)
- Doughnuts:
- Heat milk in a small saucepan or microwave until just warm (you want it to be between 105°F and 110°F). Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer and scrape in vanilla seeds; reserve pod for another use. Add 1 Tbsp. sugar and sprinkle yeast over. Let sit until yeast starts to foam, about 5 minutes.
- Add egg, egg yolk, honey, lemon zest, salt, and remaining 2 Tbsp. sugar. Mix gently with a wooden spoon until barely combined. Add 2 3/4 cups flour and knead with a dough hook on medium-high speed until dough comes together into a mass that no longer sticks to the sides of bowl and is beginning to climb up the hook, about 5 minutes. (Dough should spring back immediately when pressed.) Reduce speed to medium-low; add butter a couple of pieces at a time, working in completely after each addition.
- Turn out dough onto a work surface and knead with your hands until smooth and springy, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a very lightly oiled bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise in a warm spot until doubled in volume, about 2 hours.
- Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll out 1/2" thick. Cut out doughnuts with cutter, twisting cutter to release them. Reroll any scraps. Transfer to a very lightly floured parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover with a kitchen towel; let sit in a warm spot until slightly puffed and dough springs back lightly when pressed, 40-45 minutes.
- Fit a wide heavy pot with thermometer; pour in oil to come at least 2" up sides. Heat over medium-high until thermometer registers 325°F. Fry 3 or 4 doughnuts at a time, turning halfway through, until deep golden brown, about 6 minutes per batch. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet; let cool.
- Using a paring knife, poke a hole in the top of each doughnut, being careful not to push through to the opposite side. Transfer grapefruit curd to a piping bag or resealable plastic bag (snip off one corner) fitted with a 1/4" round tip. Fill doughnuts with grapefruit curd, then coat generously with citrus sugar.
- Do Ahead
- Citrus sugar can be made 3 days ahead. Store airtight at room temperature.
GRAPEFRUIT CURD
The flavor is buttery and bright with a good balance of tang and sweetness. Store in the refrigerator. Kept refrigerated, grapefruit curd will last for about 1 week, or up to 1 month in the freezer.

Steps:
- Pour grapefruit juice into a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a simmer. Simmer until juice is reduced to about 3/4 cup, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a measuring cup to cool slightly; stir in grapefruit zest.
- Whisk sugar, egg yolks, and egg in a bowl until smooth. Whisk warm juice into egg mixture. Pour back into the saucepan and heat over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture has thickened to the texture of warm pudding and is thick enough to coat your spoon, 8 to 10 minutes.
- Pour the curd through a mesh strainer into a clean bowl to remove zest and any bits of cooked egg. Add butter to the warm curd; stir until butter has melted and the curd is smooth. It will continue to thicken as it cools.

Steps:
- Sprinkle the yeast over the warm water, and let stand for 5 minutes, or until foamy.
- In a large bowl, mix together the yeast mixture, milk, sugar, salt, eggs, shortening, and 2 cups of the flour. Mix for a few minutes at low speed, or stirring with a wooden spoon. Beat in remaining flour 1/2 cup at a time, until the dough no longer sticks to the bowl. Knead for about 5 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Place the dough into a greased bowl, and cover. Set in a warm place to rise until double. Dough is ready if you touch it, and the indention remains.
- Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and gently roll out to 1/2 inch thickness. Cut with a floured doughnut cutter. Let doughnuts sit out to rise again until double. Cover loosely with a cloth.
- Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in confectioners' sugar and vanilla until smooth. Remove from heat, and stir in hot water one tablespoon at a time until the icing is somewhat thin, but not watery. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large heavy skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Slide doughnuts into the hot oil using a wide spatula. Turn doughnuts over as they rise to the surface. Fry doughnuts on each side until golden brown. Remove from hot oil, to drain on a wire rack. Dip doughnuts into the glaze while still hot, and set onto wire racks to drain off excess. Keep a cookie sheet or tray under racks for easier clean up.
