Time to Make the Donuts

Or is it doughnuts? Neither spelling works for me.

I've had my eye on the recipe for French Crullers in A Passion for Baking for some time. Can you really make donuts without frying them in oil? My house is divided.

These are made by making a Pâte à choux and piping it onto a few pans, then baking and glazing them. They were quick and delicious! I'd make these again.

  3. that looks delicious although I am not sure that I would call it a donut. donuts have a very specific texture that I can't imagine getting from pate a choux. as long as they are good that's all that matters though

  4. Well, "Me!" - regular cake or yeasted donuts, no. I thought it was awfully close to a cruller, with the eggy lightness.
