Piece of cake! Easy to make and tasted great. Definitely a keeper!
Made these for a party and everyone loved ’em! They were gone in no time.
I’m glad to hear that! These donuts are a crowd-pleaser for sure. Did you make any changes to the recipe?
How many donuts does this recipe actually make? Seems like it might be too few.
I think it should make about a dozen! Depends on the size of your donut pan though. Just measure it out!
I dunno, looks like it might only make 6 or so. I like my donuts big and fluffy, not small.
I tried to make these but totally forgot the eggs. They turned out like rocks. 😩
These donuts are to die for! My kids couldn’t get enough. 🍩❤️
I don’t know. Seemed too sweet for my taste, but others liked it. 🤷♂️
I get what you mean! I think it’s all about personal preference. Some like it sweeter, but those spices are bomb! 🍏🍩
Can you use apple juice instead of cider? Would they still taste good?
