4. Bake in a 220 degree celcius oven for 12 - 15 minutes or until well risen and browned. Cool slightly.
5. Combine extra sugar and cinnamon.
6. Make a small incision in the doughnut and fill with a teaspoon of jam (a syringe or narrow spoon works well). Brush lightly with water and roll into the cinnamon sugar.
