Snowed in for the second time in a week, my new Cuisinart Elite beckoned. I've never tried making doughnuts before, but always make my own pizza dough. This recipe produces light, airy doughnuts- every bit as good as the crispy/cremey doughnuts you buy. I followed the recipe to the letter, and they came out perfect. With no doughnut cutter on hand, I used a metal 1-cup measuring cup to cut them out ( a little larger than my biscuit cutter) , and then used an empty prescription bottle to cut out the holes- just the right size!

I've been making this recipe for the past couple of years, and everyone I make it for just loves them! I followed the advice for making without the bread machine, and it is still a very fast recipe- so easy!! The tip about flipping them out of the pan and turning them upside down as soon as them come from the oven is key. That way, all of the cinnamon mixture stays within the buns, rather than pooling on the bottom. The best cinnamon rolls I've ever made!
