For a richer flavor, try using melted butter instead of shortening. Experiment with different extracts in the glaze, such as lemon or maple. These donuts are best enjoyed fresh. If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container.

Jan 31, 2024My donuts stuck to the pan a little, so I would recommend greasing the pan very well. Otherwise, the recipe was perfect!
