Sweet yeast doughnuts are made with lots of egg yolk for a rich and tender pastry. Roll in sugar after frying so every bite is as sweet as can be.

Crisp on the outside and delicate on the inside, these yeast doughnuts have a whisper of lemon and nutmeg. But the secret to their success is mashed potatoes. This recipe will serve a large crowd quite well.
