Want to make a glazed
donut like Krispy Kreme’s? You don’t have
to be a professional baker or pastry chef to make this one. I have discovered a
simple recipe you can do at home and ingredients can be found at supermarkets.
You can give it a try if you want something sweet this weekend. Let me know how it worked for you. I will be glad if you send me pictures of your work.
ENJOY making your own
original glazed like krispy kreme donut.
Dough ingredients:
3 cups all purpose flour
3 tsp yeast
1 cup lukewarm water
4 tbsp white sugar

Preparing the dough:
- Mix yeast, water, sugar and shortening. Then add in the flour.
- Knead the mixture until smooth. Let the dough rise for 1 hour.
- Flatten the dough to ½ inch using rolling pin.
- Cut shape of donut using a cookie cutter. (or if you don’t have a cookie cutter, you can use a cup or glass to cut a circular shape dough, then afterwards put hole in the center). Set aside for 30 minutes.
- Fry donuts over medium-heat vegetable oil. Flip it when it floats or until golden brown. Put it in serving trays.
