Looking for a quick and delicious breakfast treat? These no rise donuts are fast and easy, and AMAZING! They can even be somewhat healthier if using wheat flour instead of white.
They can be made with or without the white chocolate ganache. The light dusting of powder sugar gives plain donuts just the right amount of sweetness. This recipe is also fun to make with the kids.
Air Fryer Breakfast Idea
My kids absolutely love these donuts. I love them, not just because they taste heavenly, but they are FAST! Since they don’t require rising, they can be made start to finish in under 30 mins.
I recently got some wheat and I have been trying to find ways to get my kids to eat it. I made Banana Bread Waffles, apple bread, and more. These donuts are a little denser than the ones you buy at the store. However, these are very filling.
There are many great things about using wheat. I inherited some wheat from my grandmother which she had bought back in the 1960s. The other day we decided to open up a can of it and see if it was still good.
We got out the wheat grinder, ground it up, and it was still good, in fact it was delicious. I was blown away!
