    I wish you could give a negative rating. This recipe doesn't even deserve one star. I've made better doughnuts from canned biscuits. These were heavy and dense. Save your time and energy and use a different recipe for light, fluffy doughnuts. These went into the trash.

    These donuts are great! I do agree that they are a bit heavy compared to other raised donuts. I found them to be a delightful cross between cake and raised donuts. Do not be afraid to try them!

    A rainy day weekend plus bored teenagers at home with a hankering for doughnuts led us to this recipe. This recipe made a very dense doughnut and the frying temperature was too high. If you are going to make these doughnuts, decrease the flour by 1 to 1 1/2 cups and decrease the oil frying temperature to 350 degrees. I also added vanilla and a pat of butter to the glaze recipe...for a well rounded flavor.

    Love doughnuts and these are great. was afraid to try them after reading the reviews until I realized that Dianne's review sound like a personal review of the chef instead of the recipe. I'm glad I tried them.

    I have tried several raised donut recipes through the years, and these are by far the best. They were light and airy, not heavy at all. Good flavor. I put glaze on some, and shook some in a bag of sugar. My family loved them.
