Mmmm…Doughnuts!

The Donut Fairy used to stop and visit Dan and me on a rare Sunday morning. But with Krispy Kreme shops closing and the local convenience store replacing their Krispy Kreme stash with generic bricks of yeast and sugar, we told the Donut Fairy not to bother anymore. We’d just try making our own.

The Donut Fairy laughed at us, saying, “You’ll never be able to do it!”

We tried anyway.

Understand that, despite the recipe’s name, they taste nothing at all like a Krispy Kreme. Also understand that there is still nothing more divine than a warm, homemade, glazed doughnut.

So, suck it, Donut Fairy. We don’t need you anymore.

    They look good!  Also, I have never had a Krispy Kreme doughnut.  I keep hearing about them though :)

      Oooh. Krispy Kremes are really good, but nothing beats homemade. :)

    I’ve never had home made donuts before. Is it super hard? 

    • http://blog.emilysuess.com Emily Suess

      No, they’re actually easy. They take time because you have to wait for them to rise, but technically they’re simple enough.

        Okay. I’m putting this in my recipe to try book. Hard to imagine any doughy, sugar cover coated anything coming out of the fryer not tasting yummy.

    They look delicious!  A friend said she had Virginia Kay’s doughnuts (new place at 24th & Meridian) and they were delicious–you know, just in case you want to be lazy.  I actually don’t mind Marsh’s donuts, but I’m no connoisseur.
