Marvelous. Flavorful, with homey good looks. My daughter praised these with language so enthusiastic that I cannot repeat it on a family website. I halved the recipe. A half batch would call for 1.5 eggs, but I just threw in two whole large eggs. Otherwise, I followed the recipe exactly as written, and could not have hoped for better results. With my full size donut pan, 1/2 batch was more than enough for seven fat donuts. To fill the pan, I held a funnel with a fairly wide mouth over the cavity and scooped batter into the funnel while moving the funnel around the curve of the donut shape. Turn the funnel sideways so it does not drip while moving from one donut to another.
