fall donuts

 

It’s fall, the trees have changed colors, and the sky is clear blue, meaning it’s time for some donuts. 

For many, this is the best time of the year which calls for a long scenic drive and a delicious treat. And what better way to pamper yourself (and your taste buds) than a sweet and delectable donut.

 

But what makes donuts the best fall delicacy? 

 

Well, the country’s love for donuts is manifest in the fact that they hold the crown for being the best American dessert.

 

Within Texas, the love for donuts is visible from the fact that 282 Shipley Do-nuts stores, 82 percent of all, are in the state alone. All the more reason why you should grab some of those mouth-watering delights from your nearest Shipleys. 

 

Confused as to which donut you should go for to satisfy your cravings? 

 

Read on, as we have here the best fall donuts for you. 

#1. Chocolate iced donuts (the best fall snack)

We’ve got your back, as chocolate iced donuts have got them both. 

 

So you can immerse yourself in a one-of-its-kind taste featuring a traditional donut recipe topped with a thick layer of delicious chocolate glaze. 

 

In fact, a layer of rich cocoa chocolate atop a moist, buttery, and sweet donut is the perfect icing on the cake. And when covered with little sprinkles, you simply can’t stop yourself from munching more than one. 

There are more reasons to go beyond one

Light on sugar and made with a smooth yet thinner dough, these donuts are the best companion for your cup of coffee. 

 

But aren’t glazed donuts bland compared to others? 

 

Not at all, as plain doesn’t mean bland. 

 

You’re rather in for a flavorful surprise, thanks to a long list of toppings available for them. From powdered sugar to frosting to glaze made with irresistible combinations like milk, sugar, cocoa powder, or cocoa, there are endless toppings you can choose from. 

 

And with Shipley’s coupon offering half a dozen glazed donuts free, it’s a deal worth grabbing.

Donuts are already the most popular breakfast. After all, nothing really comes close to the tasty and filling donuts that make your breakfast both appetizing and wholesome. 

 

When it comes to the best fall breakfast, apple filled donuts tops the list. 

 

Why? 

 

An apple donut is a filling and healthy option that keeps you going for the day, which makes it the go-to option for the morning. 

 

Also, if you’re in for a savory breakfast delicacy, you can’t go wrong with donuts filled with juicy apples on the inside and a soft and warm layer on the outside.  

 

Now coming to the fall, you can get some of the freshest apples at this time of the year. Meaning, apple donuts freshly baked on a fall morning are simply at their best. 

Bonus 

In for a heavenly taste? 

 

Grab some fresh apples from your local farmer’s market and bake some donuts out of them. 

#4. Lemon filled donuts

Not a fan of apple donuts? 

 

Rest easy, as you can still savor some fulfilling delight this fall with lemon filled donuts. 

 

Lemon filled donuts are as delectable as apple filled donuts and can be your go-to healthy breakfast. That’s because these donuts are baked and are completely oil-free. 

 

And what makes them super delicious is the filling of fresh lemon curd along with lemon extract for the best of flavors. 

 

A little sprinkle of powdered sugar atop these donuts, and you’ll keep munching them for the entire day. 

#5. Baked cinnamon sugar donuts

Fall is the time when we all crave some warm sweet delicacy, and what better to serve your cravings than some fresh and hot donuts. 

 

Talking about hot donuts, nothing comes close to the little cinnamon sugar donuts, which are so delicious that you won’t stop till they cool down. 

 

And why stop? 

 

After all, these donuts are best enjoyed fresh from the oven, and you can have them delivered warm and fresh right to your home from your nearest Shipleys. 

Donut pro tip 

Customize your hot cinnamon sugar donuts with some sugar sprinkles and caramel drizzle for a savory fall snack.

Love strawberries?
