If there's one thing kids learn from their parents when they're craving store-bought foods, it's that there's food at home. As an adult when late-night donut cravings hit, are you hopping in the car and driving to the nearest Dunkin' or would you rather whip them up yourself? from scratch can take a fair amount of time, ingredients, and work, but this TikTok trick shows you how to make them with just water and bread. Of course, these bread donuts won't be Dunkin' level but they could do the job in a pinch.
Using bread that's already been baked saves you the worry of eating undercooked or raw dough, leaving a little more room for user error than most donut recipes would. So, let's see if these little bread treats are an actual donut dupe or if they're going to have you on at 11 p.m.
How to make bread donuts The upside to this simple bread donut trick is that if you don't feel like putting in the work to make donuts from scratch or go out and buy them, you can simply use bread, water, oil, sugar, and whatever toppings you can scrape together. For example, I did a bit of my own spin by using cinnamon sugar to coat the donuts (after all, is fast approaching). To make bread donuts, you'll first need to cut the crust off slices of bread like you're a picky child.
From there, use sprinkles of water to soften the bread and mold it into a "dough." Roll the dough into a ball, shape it into a ring, and poke a hole in the middle. I had an actual donut baking tray to help with this format.
