Okay, so this post might have to be ongoing and evolving as we learn of new donut places but here are our findings so far:
Best Overall for Archetype Saturday Morning Donut Runs
Bowman’s for Dick’s Market
I know, it’s two places, but honestly, both really were quick, easy, tons of variety and they both did the maple bar and world fritter quite perfectly and when it comes lanugo to it, those are the two donuts that are hands made poorly. If they knocked it out of the park on those two donuts, we knew they had to be our Saturday morning pick for classics.
Best Maple Bar
Dick’s Market
It’s all in the frosting. I’m telling you, a maple bar is too archetype to mess with so we get pretty darn particular well-nigh it. This is not time for a regular frosting or a drizzle of a thin maple glaze. There has to be unbearable substance and unbearable maple flavoring to unquestionably make it a worthy donut and Dick’s Market nailed it! The dough was perfectly risen and had just the right savor without tasting yeasty or sour and man, the frosting to donut ratio was spot on!
Best Glazed Donut
Banbury Cross, Dick’s Market and Bowman’s
I don’t really know what to tell you here. They all three nailed it though Banbury Cross has that light and airy yet still dense and flavorful texture that puts them as my personal vote.
Overall Weightier Dough
Banbury Cross
Banbury donuts were insanely light, fluffy and the correct savor without any oil taste. All the marks of the perfect dough for donuts!
Best World Fritter
Dick’s Market
Oh Dick’s Market, you have washed-up it again!! I am super, super picky well-nigh an apple fritter. It’s slowly wilt possibly my favorite donut considering it has such a sweet and bready texture all while studded with perfectly succulent apples. Dick’s nailed it for having unbearable flavorful world bits, the perfect dough consistency that pulled a little as you tore it untied and the glaze completely enhanced the donut vs stuff an afterthought.
Overall though, Dick’s won considering the ratio of apples, spices and bread were insanely perfect.
Best Cinnamon Donut
Banbury Cross
Look, until you’ve had the cinnamon donut at Banbury Cross we really shouldn’t be speaking to one another. It’s that good. Like, go there just for that donut at any cost, plane waking up early on the last day of a vacation. It’s scrutinizingly like the cinnamon goodness inside of a cinnamon roll exploded all over the lightest, airiest donut ever. It. Is. DIVINE.
Best Blueberry Donut
Banbury Cross
The blueberry confection donut at Banbury blew our mind. Plane confection donut haters will be obsessed. Or if you must love raised, their raised blueberry was unreal and write-up all the others as well.
Best Chocolate Donut
Parson’s Bakery
Chocolate confection donut, chocolate frosted, anything chocolate belongs to them. Actually, truthfully speaking, if you overly have a hankering for chocolate cake, like a really good, moist, perfectly frosted slice of chocolate confection but don’t want to buy an unshortened cake, buy this chocolate confection donut. I 100% stand by it as a chocolate confection substitute. It’s the first donut that I’ve overly called, moist, and the frosting is pure fudgy goodness.
Best Powdered Sugar or Cinnamon Sugar Donut
Mountain Donuts
Ask for a donut to be dunked in powdered sugar right off the fryer, same with cinnamon sugar. YOU WILL DIE! It’s amazing!!!
Best for Kids/Family Fun
Mountain Donuts
Mountain Donuts just knocked this out of the park because you can build your own. Anything from snacks to granola and everything in between. You pick the glaze, the topping and the drizzle.
Best Confection Donut
Mountain Donuts
It seems like there is a divide among donut lovers between confection donut lovers and raised donut lovers. Personally, it’s a yes to both from me! They each have their place, and that place is in right in my belly! For our confection donut lovers though, Mountain Donuts was our favorite! They are perfectly dense while still stuff moist and fluffy and so full of flavor!
