I tried these, and they were a flat mess. They tasted good, but they were definitely missing donut-ness. I may have missed something that made them turn out this way, since it sounds like most of the veteran donut-makers had no issues with this recipe. I will probably try it again at some point, when I am feeling adventerous. When I do, I will update my review.

I loved the detailed instructions for making doughnuts for the first time! I’ve used this recipe several times and they’ve turned out perfect!

I finally got to try these. They are really good! I’ve made them 3 times now!

My kids an hubby loved these krispy kreme like doughnuts. There was a little more prep work, but hey! They’re yeast doughnuts. I recommend adding a dash (or 3) of Penzy’s Vanilla sugar to up the sweetness of the dough.

This was a very easy-to-follow recipe that made a daunting task like homemade doughnuts very easy and fun to make! I had problems regulating the oil temperature but I think if I deep fry them next time that’ll solve my problem.
The dough was good but I was expecting something a little sweeter, so I might add a little sugar to the recipe next time. The glaze definitely helped and my favorite was a butter/maple glaze that reminded me a lot of waffles! : )

I had always been hesitant to try donuts at home but with so many PW recipes being a hit in our home I tried these and they were wonderful! Would definitely make them again.

Hands down…the best doughnuts ever. No joke. However, I noted in the dough recipe portion there is salt listed but its not shown where to use it in the dough. I added it with my flour. Just a note. These are fabulously chewy on the inside, crispy on the outside and the glaze…I’ve never had anything like these before. So yummy!

at my 9-yo’s insistence, I made the dough for our family night treat and he helped with the frying — oil patting and glazing duty. They were very tasty. The donuts holes were the guilt-free portion of the night. Haha.

My two problems were oil temp and perhaps not rolling the dough out thin enough. The results were either doughy on the inside or quite dark on the outside. Still tasted great. If I had made the donuts again within the week, my memory would have helped about oil temp. regulation and would have had more golden, cooked donuts, I think.

This made many donuts so I took them to school the next day for the kids and their friends to have an afterschool “snack.”
