If you want to make these NOW & don’t have a donut cutter? You can also use a “rocks” glass for the donut & a shot glass for the hole. It works perfectly & I did this for years.
(I didn’t read all of the comments so if someone else said the same? Great minds!)

🍩 Another awesome video! Thanks! ☕️

I use to work at Winchell's donuts. They used wood sticks to flip the donuts in the oil, to take them out, and also during glazing. I use chopsticks at home. Works brilliantly ;-)

[austynwhite]

OMG!!! just finished making these and they're absolute everyone was going nuts from how much of a replica these are! I live in canada so the closest one to me is 4hours away. Thank you so much for another great recipe by you I have used.

[jerrydjones]

At Krispy Kreme we use water for our glaze!! There for we get the clear coat of glaze to see the beautifully fried doughnut underneath!😊

Back in 2004 I hired on to a welding shop. When I went to my first shop safety meeting I commented on the lack of donuts. Safety director asked what the H does a donut have to do with safety. I replied, with the wages this place pays, it's pretty hard to concentrate on safety when all you can think about is where your next donut is coming from.

Next meeting we all had Krispy Kreme donuts.

I have tried many of your recipes, they've all turned out great. I love watching you cook.🙂

[danawouster]

I actually made this recipe and I filled mine with custard, dipped some in Thin vanilla and chocolate icing. Today I came back to follow the recipe again for Glazed and jelly filled donuts. Thanks you helped me become famous with the husbands job.

Here's a little TIP from my kitchen-to-yours: When working with flipping Doughnuts...try using a wooden or heat-resistant CHOPSTICK! Simply insert in the DONUT HOLE and the Donut will gravitate to it, THEN FLIP it over (this will save you from having to use TWO utensils to get the job done! ;-D It's also easy to take them out of the hot oil when utilizing the CHOPSTICK.
Additionally, if you have a clean coffee mug holder...it's great for hanging your donuts on, this helps prevent the oil from making them too "heavy & greasy"...and since the coffee cup/mug rack is VERTICLE it doesn't take up a lot of precious space when you're making a lot of Donuts! We tend to use GRAPESEED OIL due to the way it cooks yeast-risen dough, but, Vegetable is also great, along with canola oil.
Usually, we prefer to use the GRAPESEED OIL when deep frying pastries such as CROINUTS (Croissant-Doughnut hybrid)! lol

You can also place the Doughnuts back onto the coffee cup/mug rack after dipping them in the glaze. It helps to "evenly" coat them (on both sides at ONE TIME! *JUST BE SURE TO PLACE A PIECE OF PARCHMENT or WAX PAPER underneath to catch any access icing or delicate sanding sugar & Cinnamon, Vanilla Powder (sugar), etc.

Chef, If you are getting that PALE yellowish-white RING around your doughnuts...then you have MASTERED doughnut making! That is what we LOOK for in a properly fried Doughnut.😀

Thank you so much for sharing your recipe... and REMINDING the viewers about the IMPORTANCE of letting that yeast bloom! EXCELLENT TIP, CHEF!!!

Dust your doughnut cutter with a little flour and your dough won’t stick to it. Great recipe!

[ethanforrestross]

Just made these! They were amazing. For years I’ve made traditional “cake” donuts, but these fluffy raise donuts will forever rival my old recipe.

[CShannon]

3:09, I noticed that sometimes the dough hook takes a little bit longer to gather all the dry ingredients with the wet ones plus the dough hook doesn’t get the dry ingredients that climbs to the sides of the bowl, (it happens to me a lot) I like to start with the flat beater to mix them together and then, I switch over to the dough hook.

Just a tip to help the mixer get the job done.

[azcojan]

I always add a bit of vanilla extract to my glaze. I’m definitely going to try these! Thanks for sharing your recipe. And I like milk with my donuts, too.😁🥰

[Zeropatience]

I make these as well. I like to add about a teaspoon or two of freshly grated nutmeg to the flour. If you're going for a cinnamon and sugar coating instead of the glaze then adding a nice teaspoon of both nutmeg and cinnamon to the flour gives them a really nice extra taste :-)

[pattywilliams]

Hey, AB! If you want to get a cleaner cut for your donuts, flour your cutter like with biscuits. Just make a little pile of flour on your cutting board and put the cutter into the flour before you cut out your donuts. Thank you so much for sharing sharing your donut recipe. They look so good.

North Miami Beach Florida on 163rd Street I'd sit in my car and wait for that light to turn on for fresh hot glazed donuts. Now I live in a town it's never heard of Krispy Kreme thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me this recipe I can make them whenever I want now. 🤟❤️

[jallgire]

When it comes to water for your yeast...you don't need a thermometer. Play with the faucet til you've got the temp of a nice, warm bath for a baby. Learned this working at a bakery and its never failed in the 20 years since

[craigfranklin]

AB - First off, I absolutely love your videos! Secondly, I never cooked before I started watching your channel, and now with the recipes you show, my family think I'm a cooking wizard 🤣.🤣I know my 3 girls will love me even more when I can make them these doughnuts! Thank you from Scotland UK and keep up the good work.

[rafaelguerraroel]

I like your style brother. simple, and straight foward. no over explaning useless stuff. keep it strong. Saludos from Mexico.

[DeeezDonuts]

As someone who suffers from lacking a Krispy Kreme in my area, this recipe is a blessing. 🤤

[tyraedmonson]

I love that he learns from his followers too about the eggs. He learns from us and we learn from him 😊😊😊!
