Christmas Tradition-Pioneer Donuts


We are a donut family. We don't eat them that much during the year, but we make them a lot around the holidays. We have a Halloween recipe for "spudnuts" and a Christmas recipe. These donuts are not what you would expect. They do not even have frosting on them. They are a recipe that my grandma used to make and my mom makes them every year from Christmas morning breakfast. I can't really explain them, but we love them!

Yum, look at all of the Christmas grease :)

The finished product. Whenever I make these I always think that I should make them more often because they aren't THAT hard. Through the year however I can never bring myself to make them.

Those look absolutely delicious! Those must be the same recipe that Kaye uses and we can't get enough!

Do they have buttermilk and nutmeg? I make donuts like that, but we call them Brigham Young donuts. My mom always made them when we were growing up, so I have tried to keep up the tradition too. Yours look delicious!!
