Best Answer

There are several types of donuts. Some are made with a yeast risen dough and others are cake donuts made with a batter similar to cake batter. You can search recipes online to find one that you think sounds good, but in general you will make the dough, cut the donuts into circles and then cut the middle out, deep fry them in oil and then coat them with sugar or sugar glaze. There are French donuts called beignets that are just squares of dough fried and coated with powdered sugar.

Doughnuts are made by frying dough in oil until cooked, and then seasoning with powdered sugar, icing, glazing or whatever taste combination is desired.

use a soft dough and roll it into a cylinder shape. then connect the two ends and cook for 5 minutes in the oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

You can make homemade donuts in a rolled container at a store, then open them, then you take a bottle cap and make holes, keep the holes so you can make donut holes, then fry them, after that get a bowl and put cinnamon and sugar in the bowl, and mix it, when you get done frying the donuts and donut holes them put them in the bowl and put cinnamon all around the donut. Enjoy the recipe!

To make donut, first you will need to find a good dough recipe. The recipe you use will depend on what type of donuts you want to make. Some are leavened with yeast and others with baking soda or baking powder. For the dough, you will also need flour, eggs, sugar, butter, spices, and so on. With a yeast recipe, you will need to let the dough rise. Then, roll or turn out the dough and use donut cutters. Fry in a deeper fryer with oil heated to 370 degrees. Then, you can leave them plain. Or you can frost them. glaze them, dip them in sugar, or anything else you like.

This is the simplest way to make donuts that I know of. You will need a can of refrigerated biscuits (the kind that comes 4 cans to a package), a frying pan with an inch of oil in it, some white sugar. Separate the biscuits and use a soda cap (from a 2 liter or 20 oz bottle) to make a hole in the center of the biscuit. Drop the holes and donuts into the frying pan of hot oil and fry on each side until golden brown. Remove them from the oil and cool slightly on paper towels. Once they can be handled roll them in white sugar and enjoy! They taste best warm, but are still good cool!
