How to Use a Donut Making Machine

A donut machine.

Donuts are an American staple when it comes to breakfast food. Bakeries often run out of donuts by noon. Thankfully, these delicious treats can easily be made at home. Use a donut maker to create a wide variety of flavors and toppings.

Instructions

1. Plug in the donut machine and allow it to heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Make sure that the donut maker's light is on.

2. Lift the donut machine's lid. Fill each section 3/4 full with dough. Close the lid.

3. Allow the donuts to cook for about 4 minutes. Open the lid to check on the donuts. They should be golden brown. Cook the donuts for 1 to 2 more minutes, if needed.

4. Use tongs to remove the donuts from the machine. Place the hot donuts on a cooling rack. Refill the donut holes with batter, and repeat Steps 2 through 4.

Tips & Warnings

• Make sure that the dough is smooth for the best results. Dip donuts in melted butter and sprinkle them with cinnamon, sugar or melted chocolate.

• The machine gets very hot, and should not be used by children.
