One of the best memories I have is making homemade doughnuts with my Grandma on an early Saturday morning when I was about 8 or 10 years old.

I remember watching them rise on the counter and then fry in the oil in a deep cast iron skillet on the stove.

I didn't want to miss a minute of it...especially when Grandma was drizzling the glaze on top of the hot doughnuts!

Doughnuts are delicious to eat any time, but always the best when served with a good cup of coffee or orange juice and good company.

They are fun to make even more fun to eat and you can bet that everyone will want to help you make them, (and eat them)!
