Gidday mates!

I have asked Alice Horton and she has agreed to share her exclusive donut recipe with her fans. So here it is:

Alice's Doughnuts

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 cup milk
5 tablespoons melted shortening
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 cups flour, sifted
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter -- melted

***Cinnamon-Sugar***
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon

In a large bowl, beat the eggs until foamy. gradually add sugar, beating constantly. Stir in the milk, shortening and vanilla. Sift together the flour, baking powder and salt. Add to the liquid mixture,mixing well. Cover and chill the dough for 30 min.-1 hour for easier handling. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with vegetable cooking spray. Roll out and pat the dough on a lightly floured board to a 1/2" thickness. Cut with a doughnut cutter. Place the doughnuts and holes on the baking sheet, about 1" apart. Bake for 10-15 min. or until golden brown. Brush each doughnut and hole with melted butter and roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat all sides.

Cinnamon-sugar: In a small bowl, combine; blending well.


Enjoy mates! Alice's donuts taste just as good as the damper i had in the Australian Outback.

I guess this will really give away your identity to the cast and crew!

They sound yummy - and not very fattening if they are not deep fried.

of those Horton women ate these all the time and still stay skinny!!!!!

Gemini -- maybe they gave the receipe out to all the cast and crew??

cast that came out a couple of years ago? It was in some cookbook and posted on the official Days' site. It also had a recipe from Marlena, a crisp, I think. Or, perhaps, this is a different recipe for Alice's donuts.

the recipe is already over at soap city!

I saw in at the Coffee Rooms site weeks ago.

Mate..........will try them........

Shawn and Belle fan FOREVER !!!
