PORTUGUESE DOUGHNUTS

Portuguese Doughnuts image

Fresh warm doughnuts-felozes (fell-o-ses)-are a tradition in my Portuguese heritage, especially during the Easter season. Some people like to roll these doughnuts without holes in sugar. Others prefer eating them with maple syrup. Either way, they're wonderful! -Isabella Castro, Gustine, California
