Can self rising flour be used and omit baking soda/powder and salt?
I was looking for pumpkin recipes and came across this gem!! Wow are these wonderful! We added a bit of cinnamon to the sugar befor rolling them in if!!
OMG!! Took this recipe to school to share. Everyone Loved it. Will make this again and again. Pat
I thought the lemon-lime soda was an unusal ingredient for doughnuts & had leftover pumpkin so I gave these a try. We all liked them. They are light. The doughnut drops are good without sugar.
