These became a thing when I was making "fry bakes" for dinner and it reminded me so much of these little doughnuts covered in sugar at a restaurant before.
I can't recall if it was while make the regular bakes for dinner, I set aside a small portion of dough, made mini versions of the bakes and after frying coated in sugar. However, I do recall these being so delicious I made them more often and shared this recipe with you all.
