Close up of a Lemon Filled Doughnut.
I’m a huge donut lover and I can often be spotted frequenting the local donut shops. Ever since I made the homemade lemon curd, I’ve been dying to make some doughnuts and use it as the filling. Boy was that a spectacular idea! These donuts were amazing. I made them on a Sunday afternoon. The kids were so excited to get some donuts and they anxiously helped through the entire process. We could hardly wait for them to cool! I ate 3 the following morning for breakfast. 3! The last 3 might I add. I just couldn’t help myself!
Now, what’s up with the spelling? I keep altering between doughnut and donut. Well, they are the same thing. The dictionary approves of doughnut, but donut is used about 1/3 of the time. I can’t decide what I like better so I keep alternating between the two for fun. Which spelling do you like better?
