Very tasty homemade donuts
Description
The baking is simple and quick. For many years now, doughnuts have remained a favorite treat for many homemakers. They can be made from yeast or yeast-free dough. Doughnuts can be filled with any filling—such as cream, condensed milk, jam—or left unfilled. This is a very popular pastry among children and adults alike. Serve with tea or coffee.
