Baked Donut

Most of the donut that we bought from the bakery shop are deep fried version, which are pretty unhealthy but it taste super yummy. Fried food are always licking good. ^^

There are two reason why I bake the donut instead of fried it. I happen to saw this cute mini donut mold at Sun Lik and immediately I bought it.

If I will to make the fried version donut, the ingredient require for yeast and I lazy to knead the dough. Hopefully I will own one bread machine soon, so I do not need to knead the dough. Tsk tsk..

For the bake version, the ingredient do not require for yeast and is easy and fast method.  

The texture for bake version taste like steam cake and is soft in the inside. After coated with the castor sugar, the donut taste delicious. But honestly I still prefer the fried version donut. =p
