GTKY: doughnut edition

Jeffreysmom24

I am stuck at the DMV and just want a doughnut! What is your favorite flavor?

My favorite is Boston Creme and a close second are the Krispy Kreme glazed doughnuts when they are freshly made - yum!

Same as you but Krispy Kreme first. As a testament to how much I love them, I once ate EIGHT warm ones fresh from a Jackson, MS Krispy Kreme while on a road trip. Those combined with car sickness still weren't enough to make me never want to eat them again.

All of them!

Lately I'm digging sour cream donuts but I also love chocolate frosted and blueberry cake.

Any kind will do. I really like Entenmann's. In high school before heading into work my BFF and I would eat a whole box. That's 4 donuts each, I feel sick thinking about it now. Lol

For those that are fans of Boston cream have you tried an eclair cake? It's so good and easy to make. Mmm.

Sweetwater's Donut Mill is right on the edge of my neighborhood! When Kate and I go on early morning walks I can smell the sweet smell of baking donuts wafting through the air. They were voted top 10 in the country. If Kate wasn't sleeping already I would go get one now.

Canadian here, so Tim Horton's for me. Nothing beats a sour cream glazed. FTY, a Boston cream donut at Tim's is only like 250 calories - maybe less. If you have that and a coffee and a midmorning apple, you can totally get away with that as breakfast.

@becc77 that's so funny. I just searched and that one looked the yummiest. Now you'll have to get a donut in the morning.

@Msbean22‌ I totally agree with you! Sour cream donuts at Tim Hortons are incredible!

I am a big fan of the old fashioned cinnamon doughnut! Mmmmm...now I want one!

Boston cream is custard right? I get so sad when my cream donut is icky custard. A chocolate frosted long john or angel cream donut is first choice, followed by glazed cinnamon roll. Better yet, we get all the donuts and cut them up small to taste all the tastes!

Any and all? If I absolutely had to pick just one, it'd be a glazed cinnamon twist that the local bakery makes. Or their old fashioned blueberry donut. OMG...I'm drooling now. Must. Have. Donuts.

Do you ever get Schnucks donuts? Ah! I miss those so bad! @ginabina11

stlmomma27

My favorite donut ever is the maple frosted donut that Schnucks has in Missouri! I miss the selection of their donuts.

Glazed sour cream.

It's a kind of donut!  The dough is made with sour cream, so it's really dense.

Easy to make??? @SJandVA recipe!

You have to make it a day ahead of when you want to eat it. The graham crackers get soft and cake like. So yummy! https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/paula-deen/eclair-cake-recipe.html#!

I love glazed sticks... It make me feel like an old person- my grandpa would only eat the old fashioned sticks (not glazed), so now I think of him whenever I have one

I am afraid of the nutrition info on this one lol... however this IS happening this weekend!

Yeah, it's not great for you but there are far worse desserts out there. You've been doing so good with losing weight. You should totally enjoy eating it and then get right back on track. All about moderation right?

Tim Horton's chocolate toasted coconut donut...or a close second is the Tim Hortons Sour Cream Glazed.

Bostom cream all the way!  Great ... now I want one.
