Soft And Crispy Donut Recipe

I tried many recipes for donuts but this one is best of all and I want to thank Fatima Zahid for sharing it with me. You must be surprised like I was that the main key ingredients in this recipe is “mashed boiled potatoes” which make these donuts very soft and crispy but you are not going to feel any taste of potatoes in it. You can use them in other day too if you store them in air tight box. The softness will be the same on other day.  One more good thing in this recipe is that you don’t have to wait for your dough to raise for hours. So here is the recipe.
