Method
Making the Donuts
Prepare the Donut Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, and vanilla extract. Melt the butter and add it to the wet ingredients. Combine wet and dry ingredients until just mixed.
Fry the Donuts
Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Pipe or spoon the donut batter into the oil and fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Making the Coffee-Toffee Sauce
Prepare the Sauce
In a saucepan, combine brewed coffee and brown sugar. Stir over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Add heavy cream and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in toffee bits.
Assembly
Serve the Dish
Place warm cinnamon donuts on a plate, top with a scoop of salted caramel gelato, drizzle with coffee-toffee sauce, and finish with caramel dust.
