My husband found this recipe. Because it was a raised donut and said a 30 minute rest time I gave it a whirl. The first few were good, but when I had to wad up the leftover dough from cutting the first batch, patted it to about 1 inch and let that dough rest another 10-15 minutes I got heavenly soft, delicious donuts! I substituted 1/2 tsp of cardamom in place of the cinnamon. I used instant rise yeast and sifted a little extra flour over the sticky dough. Just enough flour added when incorporated in the dough it felt like baby flesh. Hot oil is a must, but not any hotter than 390°. Really good homemade donuts! If your donuts are flat and tasteless probably you added too much flour and overworked the dough for only a 30 minute rest. I live at 5,000ft elevation if that helps to adjust what may help you if you give it another try.Reply

Perfect! I tweaked these by adding 1/2 tsp. nutmeg and 1 tsp cinnamon to the dipping sugar at the end. They were so light. So fast and easy. No need to go out to get donuts anymore.Reply

I make these doughnuts all the time and they always turn out great. I let them rise a little more than 30min in the oven with the light on. I usually have to add extra flour so they don’t stick to the parchment paper I rise them on, but too much flour makes them flat and heavy. I roll them in cinnamon sugar right out of the oil and they disappear in no time!1Reply
