Drop Doughnuts

By lknowles

These doughnuts are dropped from a spoon in to the hot oil
so - NO HOLES. If you get real good at this - you might be
able to make a hole.

This came from my mother and it was a family favorite, we
had them for many year's, when we lived on a farm. Did not have a doughnut store on every corner at that time.

Enjoy them - as we did!

• 2 eggs
