2013-03-30 Made for the first time. For the fruit, I used a total of 320g baby carrot (7 or 8), 1 giant strawberry, some sugar snap peas (about 10?), ½ a red delicious apple and I replaced the cinnamon with cardamom. I used my friend John’s [hen’s] brown eggs. (Nothing like farm fresh eggs!) Oh my stars! The oven spring! Lofty, lovely and the scent filled air in the castle of alluring eastern spice. Doughnut pan, 15 min convection at 350deg, gas oven, mini muffin pan 14min, then 2min oven off. Yield; 6 doughnuts, 24 mini muffins and one single soufflé size cake. This dough has high moisture content due to the use of fresh vegetables/fruits. Bake time should go longer, even with the use of convection. I tossed them all in a mix of sugar/cinnamon/expresso. Oh la la!
Oh la la is right! I really, REALLY like these doughnuts. Cakes. Cake doughnuts... Thanks for the hints and tips - much appreciated. PJH
