Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your donut bites the best flavor and texture. If you can, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your donut bites tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the dough rise properly: This will help the donut bites to be light and fluffy. If you don't let the dough rise long enough, the donut bites will be dense and chewy.
- Fry the donut bites at the right temperature: The oil should be between 350°F and 375°F. If the oil is too hot, the donut bites will brown too quickly and be undercooked in the middle. If the oil is too cool, the donut bites will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
- Coat the donut bites in your favorite toppings: You can coat the donut bites in cinnamon sugar, powdered sugar, or your favorite glaze. You can also top them with sprinkles, nuts, or fruit.
