Hungarian Doughnuts recipe

Sweet bakeries known as doughnuts are usually baked with leavened dough and eaten with jam and powdered sugar on top. There are several hypotheses regarding the origin of this delicacy, which became famous in Hungary in the 19th century. Some claim that it comes from Vienna, while others attribute its dissemination to the French queen Marie Antoinette. In Hungary, eating donuts is connected to the carnival: donuts from the carnival are a common snack before fasting, and in the Christian tradition, it’s good consuming as many donuts as you can before abstaining from decadent pleasures. Folklore holds that donuts are a sign of finding a mate: females would give a donut as a present to guys to show them that they were sympathizing.
