NO YEAST DOUGHNUTS

It’s doughnuts time again… This is my another batch of doughnuts which is without yeast. I loved the recipe and so I could not stop myself to try this. I can never stop making new doughnuts recipes whenever I get time. This is yeast free recipe and very easy which requires very short time, that is made under 10 minutes. Total time taken for the full recipe is only 30-40 minutes. It is made with baking powder. This batch actually made for my bro’s kids with extra love. I would say that this is the best doughnuts recipe, very light and soft. Hope you all love this recipe and don’t forget to share your experience.
