Doughnuts with Saffron Cream – The Ghee Spot

Doughnuts good, custard good – together mmmmmm!

I feel like you shouldn’t need to be sold on doughnuts. Doughnuts are delicious! Then you throw in some silky creamy saffron custard and you’ll be in heaven. Oh and SEO loves when you add in the title back into your first paragraph – so doughnuts with custard cream. yaaaay we did it! Except we is naughty naughty girls for not putting it in our H2 – weeeeeee!

There are two kinds of people in this world: people who think doughnuts are already perfect, and people who haven’t tried stuffing them with saffron cream yet. Soft, pillowy doughnuts filled with a silky saffron cream that tastes somewhere between a bakery custard and your favorite mithai. The result is rich without being heavy, sweet without being cloying, and just fancy enough to make people think you spent all day making them – oh wait, you did. So they best appreciate these damn doughnuts.

These doughnuts aren’t difficult to make but they do require a lot of attention to detail. So you’ll want to read the directions carefully, measure ingredients carefully, and check it all again. The custard is a great example of this recipe being sneaky – you add the heavy cream well after it’s all done.

Now that we all have doughnuts and happy hearts I’m off to tickle kitty toes. Eat well and make merry, my dears!
