If I'm making a regular glazed donut, I'll omit the cinammon. No complaints from the kiddos or hubby though!!<br/><br/>What city do you live in? I just stumbled onto your blog!! We live in Phoenix, and there are Albertsons here, but these are owned by the LLC so they run different deals.

She didn't fry them, but had a handy machine like a waffle maker that made doughnuts... made more of a cakey doughnut.<br/><br/>thanks for bringing back the memory... now I'll have to see if they still make those machines so I can do the same for my son when he gets of the bus in a few years :) Yum… my mom used to make doughnuts once and awhile as a treat for us when we got off the bus.

What did you dip them in when they were done? Did you have to dip them in butter and then cinnamon and sugar? <br/>I made fried donuts once with biscuit dough from a can and they were horrible!! I also bought a donut pan and tried to make baked ones (with a healthy sneaky recipe) and they were worse!! No one ate them and we wasted so many ingredients! But maybe if they tasted as good as yours look they will! Jessica…they look great!! What did you dip them in when they were done? Did you have to dip them in butter and then cinnamon and sugar?

You don't show a picture of a homemade donut for pregnant gals to see!!! I don't have a fryer or the energy to try these at the moment, so I may have to make a run to Dunkin Donuts. I. Am. Drooling.

They were good and my husband was a huge fan, but I burned myself something fierce doing it! Until I can master the technique, I'll have to live vicariously through you. ;) Yours looks delicious!
