Hello, friends, food lovers, and community members! I hope you are all doing well, spending quality time with your loved ones, and enjoying some delicious food. Today, I want to share the donuts I made for the first time, tasted for the first time. You might be surprised to know that my husband is from the USA, and we have a large family there. Although we often visit them, I have never tried donuts in the US or Norway. One day in India, I unexpectedly asked my husband how donuts taste. He encouraged me to make them, but mentioned that store-bought options are not very healthy. So, I began searching for recipes. I found a few that I liked, but many were overly fatty or included non-vegetarian or non-vegan ingredients. Ultimately, I created my own vegan recipe, and I’m happy to say it turned out very tasty—better than what you might buy from a shop. It is easy and simple, easy to make, with available ingredients.

**Ingredients:** 1 cup fresh wheat flour 1/2 cup semolina 1 cup freshly grated coconut 2 tablespoons jaggery 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon dry yeast mixed with 1 teaspoon sugar in warm water 2 tablespoons coconut oil Oil for frying the donuts 1/2 cup powdered sugar for coating **Procedure:**

Grind the grated coconut and jaggery together using 1/2 cup of water. Set aside.

In a bowl, mix the wheat flour and semolina, then add the salt. Combine thoroughly.

Add the yeast and sugar mixture to the flour and mix well. Incorporate the coconut and jaggery mixture into the flour mixture, mixing it thoroughly. Knead the combined mixture into a soft dough.

Gradually add the coconut oil and knead further until you achieve the right texture. Cover the dough and let it rest for about 1-2 hours, or until it doubles in size. If you are in a warm climate, it may rise in about an hour.

Once the dough has doubled in size, punch it down and divide it into equal portions. Shape each portion into a ball and use your finger to make a hole in the center, forming a ring shape.

Cover the shaped donuts with a moist cloth and let them rest for an additional 30 minutes.

You can choose to bake them, use an air fryer, or deep-fry them. I decided to deep-fry them due to unstable electricity.

After frying and allowing them to cool, coat the donuts in powdered sugar and enjoy!

Thank you very much.
