Vegan Donuts filled with chocolate cream (Doughnuts)

There was always something magical around Donuts. Since I was a kid the first thing I have associated with donuts - was what? Right, police...I don't think that there is a 90s kid who hasn't seen some kind of police TV series there were always donuts at some point. Of course, now things are a bit different because donuts are almost everywhere, but it's pretty understandable they are so delicious and sweet, but do you really know the origin of donuts? It might surprise you, here is some interesting information about them.

The earliest origins to the modern doughnuts are generally traced back to the olykoek ("oil(y) cake") Dutch settlers brought with them to early New York (or New Amsterdam). These doughnuts closely resembled later ones but did not yet have their current ring shape. One of the earliest mentions of "doughnut" was in Washington Irving's 1809 book A History of New York, from the beginning of the World to the End of the Dutch Dynasty:

Sometimes the table was graced with immense apple-pies, or saucers full of preserved peaches and pears; but it was always sure to boast of an enormous dish of balls of sweetened dough, fried in hog’s fat, and called dough-nuts, or oly koeks: a delicious kind of cake, at present scarce known in this city, excepting in genuine Dutch families.

The name oly koeks was almost certainly related to the oliekoek: a Dutch delicacy of "sweetened cake fried in fat."

According to anthropologist Paul R. Mullins, the first cookbook mentioning doughnuts was an 1803 English volume which included doughnuts in an appendix of American recipes. He also traces its origins to the oliekoek that arrived in America with the Dutch settlers in the early 18th century. By the mid-19th century, the doughnut looked and tasted like today's doughnut, and was viewed as thoroughly American food.


Doughnut vs. Donut: The Official Dictionary Spelling of the word in question—if you’re into that sort of thing—is “doughnut.” The expedited, simplified, Americanized spelling of “donut,” as Grammarist tells us, has been around since at least the late 19th century. It didn’t catch on, though, until late in the 20th century.


So, today I would like to share with you an amazing in my opinion recipes of donuts filled with an incredible chocolate cream.
