Berliner – Easy German Donuts Recipe is very similar to Donuts.
Donuts, Name itself is just so fancy round the season. Kids are very much attracted towards donuts whenever they see it in a Mall especially.
Long Play timings and Lengthy Walks in the Mall makes them so much crazy to carve for something. Adding to this, the Aroma of Donuts just wakes up their taste buds (not only theirs off course 😉 and pushes us to buy these Donuts.
So these Donuts where in my To-Do List for very long time. They just suit this week’s Blogging Marathon theme “Global Cuisine”, since the Berliner is originated in German.
Berliner is a traditional German pastry with no central holes filled with Jam or Marmalade. Usually coated with Icing or Powdered Sugar.
The main ingredients are Yeast, Flour, milk and Eggs. Yeast dough is allowed to raise and cut to rounds using a cookie cutter and then deep fried in Oil till golden brown.
They are so soft and airy on the inside. Filling it with jam just adds extra rich flavor. You can use any jam of your choice. You can also glaze it with Chocolate and add on some sprinkles for a party. Variations are limitless you can go on with your favorite choices.
