Homemade Donut Recipes And Tips

I promised my 4yo I'd finally crack open my deep fat fryer to make donuts this weekend. Any advice for someone who's never used a fryer before?

Also, any good recipes?I don't like the cake style (krispy kreme), prefer old fashioned or cruellers. Would also appreciate freezing tips.

Thanks!

Hi Megan!

Ive never used a deep fryer...but have had luck making aebleskivers to satisfy the donut craving for my teens.

Let me know if you need the recipe....I used one that I found with tootle and just substituted gluten-free all purpose flour.....but can add link when I'm back on my laptop in the morning.

Ps...ours have never made it to the freezers.

IF you ever find a recipe for fried donuts that taste like krispy kreme glazed I'd love the recipe. It's not something we'd eat often but we'd love them as a special treat sometimes. I've tried baked donuts and one recipe for fried but they weren't light and fluffy. We really dislike cake dounts.

I'm confused. Old Fashoined donuts ARE cake style. Crullers can be either. Although I've never had a Krispy Kreme, the one's CommonTater are talking about are glazed, and those are usually raised donuts.

 

Personally, I liked either kind back in the day, but my favorite way to eat them was plain. I liked plain cake donuts, and a couple of different times in my life I worked at a bakery. I loved to put aside a raised donut and eat it without the glaze. They taste like fry bread. Yum. Come to think of it, when I would go to the fair, I would have my fry dough (called fry bread here in the Dakotas) without the powdered sugar.

 

What HAPPENED to me??!!! I never used to like sweet stuff. Now I can't seem to get enough of it! :ph34r:

Lisa, I just looked up aebleskivers and they sound delicious. I'd like to try making some if you'll give us the recipe. Thanks!

oh...they are fantastic...when I ended up with a nice peacock blue cast iron aebleskiver pan when my folks sent some things over for a yard sale...I couldn't let the pan go so I asked a friend of mine in Denmark for a recipe...lol he sent me this link as the one his Mom uses!!!

All I do is replace the flour -- I use Pamela's bread mix or BRM All Purpose...the kids say the Pamela's batches are just a tad better.  Personally I think the buttermilk is the most important ingredient..

 

I have seen a lot of aebleskiver pans recently -- well last Christmas season in the stores...but it is a great yard sale/thrift store item too :)

 

Oh...the one trick I do is overfill the oil just a bit so that it stays hot and full enough to make several batches...

 

oh oh...the batter stays well in the frig for at least a few days...in fact the second day batter was one of my best batches.

sometimes I make hot lemon glaze to drizzle or we have used blueberry jam -- powder sugar shaker is always on the table when I serve them :)

      Confused About Results

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38, Diabetes and Celiac often go hand in hand.  Having more than one autoimmune disease is common with Celiac.  I'd err on the side of caution and go gluten free.   I did not want to go on insulin, either.  I got my diabetes under control by following the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (Dr. Sarah Ballantyne).  My diet now does include carbs.   We're supporting you through this difficult time.

      This Roller Coaster Ride Needs to Stop

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      @Ginger38,  I've been there with horrible symptoms and diarrhea accidents and diabetes and the insulin conundrum!  My doctors were just as frustrating!   I had nutritional deficiencies.  I know your doctors refuse to test for this.  So did mine, saying "I can't make money prescribing vitamins."  Some members say a naturopathic doctor is more open to testing for deficiencies.  Remember not to start supplementing until after testing is done.  Otherwise the supplements will raise your blood levels falsely.   I had studied Nutrition at university, so I decided to supplement essential vitamins and minerals.  A B Complex, extra Thiamine (Benfotiamine) for the diabetes, magnesium and Vitamin D are the supplements I started with.   The B vitamins are water soluble so any excess is excreted easily.  Thiamine even in high doses is safe and nontoxic.  Diabetics lose more thiamine in urine because of weird kidney stuff.   I wanted to get my blood glucose levels under control because gluten free foods made my level spike for long periods, too.  I absolutely did not want to go on insulin.  Once you do, the pancreas stops making it.  Very scary.  Best to help the pancreas function with thiamine in the form Benfotiamine. I began the low histamine version of the Autoimmune Protocol Diet (developed by Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, A Celiac herself).  It's a low carb, very strict diet at first, then expanded.  I considered it similar to feeding a sick baby.  You don't give hard to digest foods to a baby.  You give easily digestible foods.  This allows time for the gastrointestinal tract to calm down and heal.  Symptoms started to calm down quickly.  With the vitamins, I started feeling much better.  My blood glucose levels stabilized.  I did not go on insulin.  I do not take anti-glycemic pharmaceutical drugs like Metformin.  Just diet.  You're making the right decision to live as a Celiac.  Your body is telling you clearly.  You can get through this.  You're strong and you're fighting for yourself and your baby.  Good job!  You have the Tribe behind you!

      nuts.com -- no longer Celiac safe?

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Though trying to diligently eat gluten free, recent bloodwork was bad so searching for culprits.  Eat lot of (preferably mixed) nuts.  Most allergen labels say may be processed on equpment that also processes wheat, etc.  Finally found ONE kind (unsalted mixed) at BJ's.  Wessley (their store brand) that did not contain that warning.  Says in large letters "A GLUTEN FREE FOOD."  Well, all nuts are a gluten free FOOD!  Have been eating and now wonder if this is intentionally decieving.  So stopped eating until find culprit.  Nuts are so good for protein and fiber (especially if trying to not eat meat).  'Tis so frustrating.  Thanks to above, I'll look into Tierra Farms.

      Yasso frozen yogurt bars - be careful

      By maryannlove · Posted

      Despite being very diligent about eating gluten free, my recent bloodwork was bad.  So been on a mission to find the culprit(s).  During Covid my daughter found "certified gluten free" Yasso mint chocolate chip yogurt bars at Costco.  I was elated and have been eating them since.  When delving into possible culprits I discovered that the boxes with 12 bars at both Costco and BJ's no longer say "certified gluten free."  But the boxes with 4 bars at groceries and Target still say "certified gluten free."  Contacted the manufacturer and was told to go by what the box says.  So guess different machinery is used.  Was also told they were in the process of changing boxes.  Will be interesting to see what that brings.
