Happy National Donut Day | June 4th | Easy Donuts Recipe with Maple Glaze Frosting

Описание: Happy National Donut Day! Today, Kevin shares his recipe for light, fluffy maple glazed donuts. At one point or another in our lives, we’ve found ourselves craving a doughnut. When we think about it, it’s not really a surprise that this treat hits the spot like no other. That's why the first Friday in June has been proclaimed National Doughnut Day!

The origins of National Doughnut Day are traced to The Salvation Army’s involvement in World War I. During this time, a group of volunteers was dispatched to the frontlines with the mission of providing comforting meals for the troops. They soon found out that doughnuts were an effective way to provide food while navigating the difficulties of cooking in very dire circumstances. These brave volunteers would later be known as “donut lassies”. They would even use war helmets as a utensil to fry up seven doughnuts at a time.

In 1938 “Doughnut Day” was established as a way to honor the members of the Salvation Army that came to the aid of soldiers during World War I. Nowadays, National Doughnut Day is widely celebrated on the first Friday of June. Many doughnut shops are known to give them our for free, giving a good reason to take some time out of the day to enjoy this most cherished treat.

Did you know?

It was way back in 1809 the the Dutch settlers brought their doughnut recipe to New York, and the new world! One of the earliest mentions of the doughnut was in Washington Irving's book, 'The History of New York'.

In 1847, the American Hanson Gregory claims to have invented the ring-shaped doughnut aboard a lime-trading ship when he was 16 years old. Gregory was dissatisfied with the greasiness of doughnuts twisted into various shapes and with the raw center of regular doughnuts. He claimed to have punched a hole in the center of dough with the ship's tin pepper box, and to have later taught the technique to his mother, who was already famous for her deep fried dough.

In 2013, a recipe for "dow nuts" was found in a book of recipes and domestic tips written around 1800 by the wife of Baron Thomas Dimsdale. The recipe was being given to the dowager Baroness by an acquaintance who transcribed for her the cooking instructions for a "dough nut".
