Delicious Doughnuts

So, you will need a donut tray for these bad boys. I got sucked into buying one in an Aldi store a while back and thought, ‘when will I ever need this, let me buy it’ Anyway, after many trials and a few errors we’ve created a recipe that is super low in sugar, taste delightful and is airy as a fluffy cloud. Have a read through first, then make the recipe. It will be much easier if you know how to make it before getting stuck in. Makes 9-10 donuts
