Cottage Cheese Donuts with Cinnamon
Description
It will be perfect with tea and coffee. The recipe is basically classic, I won’t tell you anything new. But I really want to take everyone back to the past and gather around the table with delicious tea and donuts dusted with powdered sugar! We’ll add fragrant cinnamon to the dough, and if you wish, you can add a pinch of nutmeg.
