Variations & Tips
For a fun twist, try adding a teaspoon of poppy seeds to the batter for a lemon poppy seed version. You can also experiment with different citrus flavors by substituting the lemon zest and juice with orange or lime. If you prefer baked donut holes, use a mini muffin tin and bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. For an extra touch of sweetness, drizzle with a simple glaze made from powdered sugar and lemon juice.
