Fried Dough Foods

A donut, also known as a doughnut, is a sweet, fried pastry that is typically shaped like a ring or a ball. The pastry is made from a mixture of flour, sugar, eggs, and butter, and is often flavored with vanilla or other extracts. The dough is rolled out and cut into shapes using a donut cutter, then fried until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside and soft and fluffy on the inside. Donuts come in a wide variety of flavors and styles, from classic glazed to decadent chocolate or fruit-filled varieties. They are often enjoyed as a breakfast treat or as a sweet snack throughout the day, and are a popular food in many countries around the world.
