Donuts are a unique sweet treat that makes any day better. They are fluffy, fragrant and covered with powdered sugar or glaze that melts in your mouth. And although many people think that donuts are difficult to make, they are easy to make at home.

Starting the day with hot doughnuts and a cup of aromatic coffee or tea is a sign that the day will be wonderful. Making doughnuts is a great opportunity to spend time with family or friends.


Variations

Doughnuts don't have to be sweet. You can experiment with fillings such as apples with cinnamon or cheese. For those with a sweet tooth, try adding chocolate or vanilla to the dough.


Secrets to tenderness and flavour

To make the doughnuts tender, let the dough rise well, which makes them light as a feather. Add a little nutmeg or cinnamon to the dough for extra flavour.


Tips on ingredients

Use fresh yeast for optimal dough rise. Avoid over-kneading to keep the doughnuts tender.


Small culinary nuances

Do not overheat the frying oil, as this can add unwanted flavour and spoil the texture on the outside.
