Warm the whole milk to approximately 38–43°C (100–110°F). Stir in the active dry yeast and a small pinch of the sugar reserved for the dough. Let it stand for 5–10 minutes, until foamy.
Melt the unsalted butter and allow it to cool slightly. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the foamy yeast mixture, remaining dough sugar, melted butter, and egg.
Add the all-purpose flour and salt. Mix until a soft, slightly tacky dough forms.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for 8–10 minutes, or until smooth and elastic. Alternatively, knead it in a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook for 5–7 minutes.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm place for 60–90 minutes, or until doubled in size.
Gently deflate the risen dough. Roll it out on a lightly floured surface to approximately
25 cm (1/2 inch) thick.
Cut out the doughnuts with a doughnut cutter or two round cutters. Transfer them to a lined tray, cover loosely, and let them rise for another 25–35 minutes, until puffy.
In a shallow bowl, thoroughly combine the ground cinnamon and granulated sugar for the coating.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed pot to 175°C (350°F). Use enough oil for safe deep-frying; the listed 45 g represents the estimated amount absorbed by the doughnuts.
Fry the doughnuts in small batches for 1–2 minutes per side, until puffed and golden brown. Maintain the oil temperature near 175°C (350°F).
Carefully remove the doughnuts with a slotted spoon and drain briefly on paper towels or a wire rack.
While the doughnuts are still warm, coat both sides generously in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Serve warm.
