🍩💜 Sweet Moments at Oakwood Terrace 💜🍩
Afternoon snack time is just as important to our residents as their three meals a day — because it’s not just about food, it’s about comfort, routine, and a little extra joy in the day.
Today, we turned snack time into something extra special with our homemade donuts… warm, fresh, and made with love right here in our kitchen. The smiles said it all. 😊
Want to try them at home? Here’s our simple, sweet recipe we use to create these little moments of happiness:
🍩Homemade Donuts (Fried)
Ingredients:
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 2 tbsp melted butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Oil for frying
👩🍳 Instructions:
1. Make the dough
Mix dry ingredients in one bowl. In another, whisk wet ingredients. Combine until a soft dough forms.
2. Roll & cut
Roll dough to about 1/2 inch thick and cut into donut shapes.
3. Fry
Fry in oil at ~350°F for 1–2 minutes per side until golden. Drain and enjoy warm!
At Oakwood Terrace, it’s the little things — like a warm donut and shared laughter — that make a place feel like home. 💜
