I've wanted to see Josh make breakfast cereal for so long. Please make it happen this seems like the perfect opportunity.

The power of suggestion is strong. Lol saw this, told my husband and he’s like “Let’s make them. Now.” Thanks Josh. Lol seriously though I’ve never been more proud of how a dough I’ve made for anything has turned out. Softest, fluffiest love wrapped donuts. Didn’t add cereal, but sprinkled cinnamon on the glaze for most of them. PS: my daughter (5) asks if you’re a chef or a dad (I think because of the papa kiss you usually do in your videos) LOL

You’re going to inspire at least 4 people to start a gourmet donut food truck with this video lol

You should do a series called “but quicker” where you make one of your dishes, but faster and more basic for us mortals

As someone who always get those confused, thank you.

I just wanted to say my brother bought me your recipe book for my Christmas present. However, he gave it to me early because he just felt like I should have it now.

The book is amazing. It’s hilarious and it’s a great in-depth recipe book. Makes me feel very fancy 10/10.

Thank you so much. I wish you would sign it

For me, I would probably blitz up the puffs so it's a crumble/powder, that would help with the texture balance!

Also, I love adding cinnamon and sometimes a zest into the glaze! Cinnamon is so good. Add it to vanilla ice cream and it takes it to another level

Greetings from Australia. Just finished making these donuts. I was totally sceptical that any homemade donut could be as good as or identical to Krispy Kreme. They were!!!
I halved the ingredients which made the perfect number.
Thanks so much 👍

We definitely need a "but easier" series for the sub par, like myself, in the kitchen 😅😅

One of the few people I would ever buy a cookbook from! Our whole family is a fan now and every recipe we have tried has been INCREDIBLE!

[harleyquinn]

I bought the book for my brother but kept it for myself. I'm truly feeling the holiday spirit

[brandonsmith]

Made this recipe yesterday. I'm sad to say they are all gone, they went so fast. 💯 Would recommend

"Vicram does not like jam and I hate him for that" sounds like something Bart would write up as a chalkboard gag

[sonydschx]

Easily the best donuts i have ever tried, the dough is so soft and fluffy that i almost couldn't believe it, will make this again

[LiberTea]

Literally went to get donuts last night while thinking "Man, I wish Josh had a but cheaper donut video"

[LaCrownedGamer]

Today is my birthday and I got a donut cake because it's literally my favorite dessert. The fact that this episode came out today makes me wanna cry in joy 🥰

So many of your videos result in me cracking up every 20 seconds or so with my husband thinking I am absolutely insane. I show him the short clip that made me laugh but without context he is often confused. He ends up merely smirking while I collapse with laughter at the second or fifth watch of that bit. You are the callback king and I love it! Thank you for making the culinary world more accessible, challenging your viewers to push their boundaries and comfort zone, and being wildly entertaining at the same time. You have a gem of a show here and a vital educational resource. Keep doing what you are doing because it is infinitely valuable and leaves a wholesome and playful legacy to the internet.

That’s crazy, I was just about to make some mini doughnuts! Love your videos!
