If you like Dunkin Donuts, Krispy Kreme, or a bakery-style glazed donut, then wait until you try this recipe! This Dunkin Donuts Glazed Donuts Recipe is exceptionally FLUFFY! They’ve been commented on how they taste like Dunkin Donuts ones, but Krispy Kreme or any other gourmet tasting donuts would compare to the taste of these! I don’t know if there is a fluffier donut recipe then this! A HUGE thanks to my friend Lubasha for introducing this recipe to me! She has even commented, “that the first thing that came into my mind when I tried them was Krispy Kreme, mm,” on her IG post.

Can I take shortcuts making these Glazed Donuts?

I tried to take shortcuts for the recipe but they didn’t taste as fluffy, so please don’t use a whole egg in the place of the yolk or any shortcuts in that matter. Just follow the instructions and see for yourself what kind of results are even possible from this recipe! This recipe is a KEEPER!

    Love these! Do you think I could let them rise overnight in the fridge for the first rise?

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      I haven’t done it that way but I think that would be fine…

    • Rosa

    I made these today. They tasted great but I cannot figure out what I did wrong. I cut them and then let them rise again. As soon as I touched them they deflated and completely lost their shape. Do you think the dough was to wet before I cut or what else would cause this?

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      Hi Rosa, when dough deflates that’s usually a sign they have overrisen. Were they rising for long after they were shaped?

    • Lucy Palom

    Looks yummy. Will try it.

    • Kara

    Wow, I think you actually replied to everyone who took the time to write in. That’s amazing. I learned a bunch by reading them all. I’m trying the recipe now. They look delicious online and I by what everyone is saying to you, they should taste delicious, too.

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      Let us know what you think about them, Kara.

    • Michelle

    Can you make the dough in a bread machine?

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      Yes, I think you can.

    • Christina Brown

    What type of yeast do I use for these donuts?

      • Alyona Demyanchuk

      Hi, dry active yeast.
