Well. we are the Bread Baking Babes, not the Bread Frying-in-Hot-Oil Babes.
Although, now that I think about it, there are some in our ranks who do tend to get in a bit of hot waterโฆ. Still, not oil.
And we are such a health-conscious lot we would, of course, bake our donuts.
At least there was yeast.
Pat, of Feeding My Enthusiasms,ย and our host kitchen for the month, wanted an easy recipe for this busy time of year.
She also wanted something a bit festive.
The donuts have just the right amount of spice to make the kitchen smell like the holidays.
And the finishing coating of sugar looks rather snowy or frosty, fitting the season.
Or, at least, oneโs seasonal fantasies. I donโt think the dull, gray, drizzly, damp of our winter would be anyoneโs Christmas fantasy.
The Babes were surprisingly well-behaved this month, although we do have a couple of rebels who used cherries or cranberries in place of the currents.

Doughnuts โฆ are they ever seasonal? But always they fit into any season! Whatever, you make our doughnuts look glorious.
There was a Dunkinโ Donuts in Barcelona that we used to go to, back when we lived closer. My father used to buy donuts at the local bakery for Sunday breakfast every weekโฆ. I miss them lol
And you never know, one day we might just become the Bread Frying-in-Hot-Oil Babes, after all you make doughnuts in hot oil with yeast.
Oh, the thought!!! lol
I canโt speak for the others of course, but the well-behaved aspect this month might have something to do with watching out, not crying, and/or not poutingโฆ.
Elf on the shelf? One can never be too careful this time of yearโฆ.
