So the holiday season is officially here. Let’s bring on the food!
These donuts are full of flavor, with none of the bad stuff. My kids and husband could not stop eating them.
I know it is going to be a good recipe when Meadow is willing to lick the beater. She insisted on wearing her Thanksgiving hat she made at school. Even Olive had a taste. I wasn’t able to get a picture of that, but here she is eating a cucumber.
