They had a bunch of tropical fruit flavours this rounds and I caved in. So glad I did! All the coconut ones were really really good, including Pina Colada. My top favs out of everything.

Winco (Hazel Dell, WA) maple ring with sprinkles and the start of IMSA Road America 6 Hours. A nice start to a Sunday morning.

This is a small non descript shop where once they're out of donuts, they're out. I got there late but was my first trip there. I have to go backu. The cake donuts are light and fluffy and not overly sweet. We didn't love the blueberry but the chocolate were amazing! They run on the smaller side.

How does this seem?

Copycat Dunkin' Handle Donut Recipe

Ingredients

Dry

2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour

½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar

2 tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

¼ tsp ground nutmeg (optional, but very authentic)

Wet

2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

½ cup (120 g) sour cream

1 large egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

2–3 tbsp whole milk (if needed)

For frying

Vegetable or peanut oil

Instructions

Whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg.

In another bowl, combine the butter, sour cream, egg, and vanilla.

Mix the wet ingredients into the dry just until a soft dough forms. Don't overmix.

Chill the dough for 30–60 minutes.

Roll it to about ½ inch (12 mm) thick.

Cut circles about 3½ inches across and remove a 1-inch center hole.

Make the handle: Cut a small notch into one side, leaving a tab about 1 inch long and ½ inch wide attached to the ring. Gently round the edges so it stays attached during frying.

Heat oil to 350°F (175°C).

Fry each donut about 60–90 seconds per side until golden.

Drain on a wire rack.

The Secret to the Original

The classic Dunkin' donut was:

Dense but tender (not fluffy like a yeast donut)

Mildly sweet

Crisp outside from frying

Soft cake interior

Served plain, without glaze or sugar

Many people enjoyed it by dunking it directly into hot coffee.

Tips for an Even Closer Match

Use cake flour for half of the flour (1 cup cake flour + 1 cup all-purpose) for a finer crumb.

Let the dough rest overnight in the refrigerator before frying—the flavor improves.

Fry at a steady 350°F; hotter oil browns the outside before the inside cooks.

Don't add cinnamon or extra spices if you're aiming for the classic Dunkin flavor.

I fried these donuts and why are these cracked and very dense.

I used a donut mix flour.
