A few nights ago, my brother brought over 10 doughnuts from Doughnut Plant Doughnut Plant. Good heavens! They were so good. Between the 5 of us, we all had different favorites, but I could really eat any and all of them. To be picky (yes, I have to be) the one complaint I have is that the pistachio one tastes more like almond extract. Lon loved the Creme Brulee doughnut, with a pastry cream center and lightly crunchy sugar coating.
Their jelly doughnut is so freakin’ cool, a square shaped doughnut with an even channel of jelly filling throughout. No more giant blob in the center. They do the same for the coconut cream doughnut, which had a great natural taste.
All of us favor yeast doughnuts in general and these had the most amazing texture. The freshness, chewy yet airy and fluffy, yum! The ginger doughnut stood out for my dad and Justin really liked the jelly one and vanilla one. Although we don’t often like cake doughnuts. these were the best we’ve ever had, super moist and packed with real flavor. My mom’s favorite was the chocolate ( I think called blackout) with the crumb topping.

ohhh. those look pretty tasty!1
OMG That looks soooo yummy! I’ve been wanting to go there but it’s just so out of the way. I wanna try their signature dulce de leche donut.
Have you guys thought about doing a Yasuda / Doughnut Plant combined post and exploring “doughnut sushi” entry? I’d be curious to understand if raw fish and doughnuts taste good together. Just an idea.
Ooh–I’ve never had a pistachio doughnut. sounds so good!
such variety! coconut cream? sounds amazing, as does this signature dulce de leche. good grief, now i’m craving a doughnut like nothing else. 🙂
Wonders, I want to try the dulce de leche too. They didn’t have any left when my brother went.
Bill, why don’t you try it out and let us know.
Ohhhhhhh…I want one! They look wonderful. Last time I had a donut was from Crispy Cream or one of the chains and it was so BAD I have not had one since. Full of chemicals and fake flavors…Now, these look great, and I went to the website and they use all natural ingredients with no fake nothing…maybe one day they will come to NC..a girl can dream right?
These are my FAVORITE donuts!!!! I can’t believe they have pistachio, I almost feel like going AGAIN. I am addicted. I am so glad you got to try them.
Coconut creme and the tres leches are my personal favorites. You forgot to mention the CHURROS. my kids happily skip over the donuts to get to the churros. The little one actually refused to eat the donut plant donut offered to him this morning and demanded a churro. spoiled brat.
Gingerbread is also a favorite in our house.
Manger La Ville, I’m sure I’ll be eating them time and time again, especially since my brother lives 4 blocks from them and can “deliver”.
Anonymous, I didn’t mention anything that I didn’t get to try, so I’m hoping I’ll get to try the rest soon!
