Doughnuts are one of the best treats around: sweet, fluffy, often colorful and frosted, and great to make homemade! Whether you have them for breakfast or dessert, they’re sure to put a smile on your face. There’s so much more to doughnuts than your basic glazed (although we love those as well!), and we have some tips and tricks for how to bring a little excitement to your homemade doughnut recipes! Check these out on our Food Monster App, but first, get started with these Blogger Tips!

1. Filled Doughnuts

Biting into a perfect doughnut is wonderful already, but when you have a tasty filling in there as well, it takes it to the next level! These Honeycomb Doughnuts from Trine Rask have an amazing crème pâtissière filling. If you like a classic filled doughnut, these Classic Cream-Filled Doughnuts from Trine Rask are for you! Or, you can get creative with your filling, like with Matcha Glazed Vanilla Bean Doughnuts With Matcha Cream Filling from Sarah Pether or Caramel Filled Doughnuts from Holly Jade! You could even switch up traditional chocolate filling with Erin Beccia‘s Chocolate Stout-Filled Doughnuts.

2. Baked Doughnuts

These baked doughnut recipes are just as delicious as fried ones – if not more! You’ll find a new favorite in these Baked Pumpkin Spice–Chocolate Chip Doughnuts from The Vegan 8, or maybe Courtney West‘s Chai Spiced Pumpkin Doughnuts with Vanilla Cashew Butter Glaze.

Half the fun of a doughnut is the bright colors, fun shapes, and creativity that can come along with them! These recipes will be so pretty that you may not even want to bite into them – but they’ll also be too delicious to resist. Holly Jade can show you how to make so many delicious AND beautiful doughnuts, like these Gingerbread Man Doughnuts or Chocolate Orange Flamingo Doughnuts!
