Notes
- Vary the sweetness in the recipe as desired. My family prefers a mild sweet version of donuts.
- Do not overcrowd the pan as they will expand when fried and if you fry too many in one go, you will not only reduce the tempertaure of the oil, this will also effect the way in which donuts rise and turn brown.
- The batter should be thick. If the batter becomes thin, then add in extra flour and if it becomes dry, add little milk and adjust sweetness accordingly.
- If you are non-vegan feel free to use whole milk in the recipe.
- See that the oil is not too hot or too cold. If its too hot then the donut will turn dark brown very quickly and will not be cooked inside, and if its too cold it will absorb excess oil.
- To check if the oil is hot, just drop a little piece of the batter mix and check if it sizzles and comes up.
- If you want to use egg, then try this banana doughnut holes or donut holes recipe.
