Directions
Alton Brown’s Yeast Doughnuts, Good old A B sure does know his way around the kitchen! Here’s a great recipe from Good Eats I thought I’d post We’re making these right now and I cannot wait to eat some! You will need a kitchen scale for this, as you have to weigh the flour Cooking time includes time to rise , I made these this morning, very easy recipe to follow and the results were AMAZING!!! The measurements are spot on I glazed some and frosted the others with a chocolate glaze type frosting My family loved them, will defiantly make them again!
