Seasonings Greetings Donuts

Recipe: Jean Heimann

In a large saucepan bring the water, butter, sugar and salt to a boil.
Take pan off heat, dump in flour, and stir until most of the flour has been absorbed. Return to heat and keep stirring over medium heat, until a crust forms on the bottom of the pan, and the batter is thick and shiny.
Take pan off heat and stir occasionally, allowing batter to cool from hot to very warm, about 5 to 10 minutes.
Mix each egg in, one at a time, until fully incorporated and dough is shiny for about 2 minutes. Do the same for the egg white and the almond extract.
With a large star tip, pipe the dough into 4-inch circles on 6-inch squares of baking parchment.
Fill a heavy large pot with 3-inches of oil to 375 degrees. Working in batches, add the piped dough face side down, with the parchment still attached. Fry for 4-6 minutes (parchment will release after 30 seconds), then flip and fry for 4-6 minutes on the other side. They should be a dark golden brown.

Mix together sugar, cocoa powder, Seasonings Greetings seasoning, and add water 1 tablespoon at a time until desired you reach the desired consistency. More water creates a translucent glaze, less water creates a thick frosting.
Decorate if you’d like with sprinkles.
