Can I fry these donuts instead of baking them?

Absolutely, While I love the ease of baked donuts, you can fry them at 350°F (175°C) for about 1 minute per side. Just pipe the batter into hot oil using a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off - watch out for splatters.

Why are my donuts dry?

Oh no, This usually happens from overbaking or overmixing the batter. Set a timer for 10 minutes and check early - they continue cooking slightly in the pan. And remember, mix just until the flour disappears.

Can I make these gluten-free?

You bet, Swap the all-purpose flour for your favorite 1:1 gluten-free blend. My neighbor swears by almond flour blends for extra tenderness - just add an extra tablespoon of milk.

How do I get that perfect glaze thickness?

The sweet spot is when it ribbons off your whisk but still coats the back of a spoon. Too thin? Add more powdered sugar a tablespoon at a time. Too thick? A teaspoon of milk does the trick.

Can I freeze these donuts?

Yes, Freeze unglazed donuts in a single layer, then thaw and glaze when ready to serve. They'll keep for a month - not that they'll last that long.
