    I tried krispy kreme doughnuts few years back when we were on a vacation. I really loved the texture of the doughnuts, they were so pillowy and has a chewy light airy texture to it. Ever since i tasted those i always wondered how they would make the dough.

    I have made quite a few version of donuts on my channel. But none of it got the texture right. Few days back i tried mochi doughnuts recipe and instantly got a idea of adding glutinous rice flour in it to get the krispy kreme like texture. I know that i have to play with ingredient measurements to get the perfect texture.

    • Now place the cut out doughnuts in a tray and set aside somewhere warm for 30 mins or so till it fluffs up again.
    • Heat oil for deep frying. Don't let it heat too much. The oil should be in medium heat.

    • Drain the doughnuts onto a paper towel or wire rack.
    • Now make glaze. mix together icing sugar, milk and vanilla together to a thick glaze.
    • Dip each doughnuts into the glaze into the glaze and let the excess drip off.
    • Set aside the doughnuts in a wire rack till the glaze sets.

    TIPS & TRICKS FOR BEST DOUGHNUTS

    1. You can skip adding egg if you don't want. You can add extra milk instead of egg.
    2. Instead of making vanilla glaze, you can mix little cocoa powder into the icing sugar to create chocolate glaze.
    3. You can pipe any jam or jellies into the doughnuts.
    4. Vanilla custard can be filled into the doughnuts.
    5. The addition of glutinous rice flour is important to create the iconic chewy pillowy texture.

    SERVING SUGGESTIONS

    Doughnuts are best served on the day it is made. But you can store in an air tight container at room temp for upto 1 to 2 days. But it will lose its freshness as it sits.
