Hi. I need a good recipe for donuts.
Any help?
from the daughter of YW Moderator-72 (sugar free donuts)
1 ounce fresh yeast
1 1/2 cups luke warm water
1 tablespoon xylitol (sugar substitute)
___ Mix the above together___
in a separate bowl
4 cups of whole wheat (or whole spelt) flour
2 eggs
1/2 cup xylitol
pinch of salt
1/2 cup of oil (grapeseed)
___ Mix these together____
when the yeast starts to sizzle add the yeast mixture to the batter mixture
mix into a dough
let sit for 1-1/4 hours to rise
shape the donuts
let sit for 1/4 hour
place in preheated grapeseed oil on a low to medium flame – cook on both sides – the oil should be sufficient to cover half the donut.
after they cool, use a cake decorator and poke a tiny hole in the side of the donut. squeeze the all natural sugar free jelly into the donut.
serve with coffee.
NOTE: This is a new recipe for us and the batter is currently rising. I will let you know in a few hours how delicious they are. The full sugar regular flour recipe came out good or so I was told.
That is a great recipe for those of using following a low carb/low sugar diet, thanks!
xylitol – is that like splenda? equal? any sugar subsitute?
A perfect topic. My mother just asked me last night If I could find her a receipe. My Hungarian grandma use to make us doughnuts on Chanukah, when I was little. She never wrote down her receipe. My Mother regrets that she never wrote the receipe from her. If anyone has a receipe for parve doughnuts NOT using parve creamer or soymilk. My grandma made it with just water, yeast, flour, sugar etc…
the recipe above is parve. and my daughter just told me she so it in mishpocha jr. (credit to the source) with the regular flour and sugar.
wow you people are insane. ugh 8 days of oil sitting at the center of your stomach. disgusting!
Didn’t see that you could use subsitutions for the Whole wheat flour and artificial sweetner. The way I see it,is if your going to fry them anyway, they aren’t healthy. May as well enjoy them the original way!!
We just make them once a year only and I only make them once throughout Chanukah. I personally do not fry during the year. So this is just a treat. Yummy delicous and made even more special because it is just for Chanukah.

depends what you fry them in. try grape seed oil. or spectrum canola oil. they’re both much more healthy.
I only buy and use regular canola oil and Olive oil in all my cooking. I don’t use vegetable and corn oils. Most of the oil I do use in cooking goes into my Challahs. One cup for a 5 lb flour bag.
and you gotta change the oil every few minutes. not saying it’s less fattening, but it’s definitely more healthy.
mmm. I just had a donut from the recipe above. mmmm delicious. I fried most of them as above and will add the jelly later. on the last couple I added cinnamon to the the donut and to the oil. I had one of the cinnamon donuts and it was great!
Can’t wait to give the receipe to my mom. She couldn’t write it down because she was busy cooking, so I read her the ingredients and she asked if there were eggs in it. She remembered my grandma also used eggs in her receipe. I wish I could taste from the batch you just made. Sounds yummy. 🙂

I agree. Pass the bourbon, please.
ugh that’s almost as bad. and anyway, charlie brown is way underage – no matter WHAT country he’re in.
well maybe not Ireland. ;} (lol that was for asdfghjkl wherever he is today)
Ask moderator 99. He seems to be eating a lot of dougnuts so he probably has a good recipe
