Doughnuts!

During the Covid-19 induced lockdown, amongst other things we missed, were some of our favourite junk foods. One day early in the month of May 2020, my 9 year old sister and I decided to do something about our junk food cravings – we would make doughnuts at home!

Our first step was to look for a recipe that used only ingredients we had available at home. After a quick google search we came upon an excellent one at https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/how-to-make-homemade-glazed-doughnuts/ . I highly recommend this recipe/ webpage.

The first batch itself was fantastic, I’d go so far as to say, it was better than Krispy Kreme or any of other big Doughnut chains that operate here.

Since everyone was suffering equally, we sent a large portion of each batch of our homemade doughnuts to all the homes in our lane. I like to think, that this little bit of “sweetness” made the lockdown a little more bearable for all our neighbours.
