Donut Holes

If dad's got a sweet tooth, he'll flip for these homemade donut holes. They're easier than you think to make!

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Oil, for frying
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar, for rolling

Directions:

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract.
  3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and whisk until fully combined.
  4. In a medium pot, heat oil to 350°F.
  5. Working in batches, drop spoonfuls of dough into the hot oil, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Fry until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per batch.
  6. Using a slotted spoon, transfer donut holes to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
  7. Roll warm donut holes in sugar until coated all over. Serve warm and enjoy!

  • 1/2 oz. fresh lime juice
  • 1/4 oz. simple syrup
  • 1 dash Angostura bitters
  • Ginger beer, to fill

Directions:

  1. Add bourbon, lime juice, simple syrup, and bitters to a shaker with ice. Shake and strain into a glass filled with ice.
  2. Top with ginger beer and stir.
  3. Garnish with a lime wedge and enjoy!

This easy-peasy pizza is just the way to treat him, especially if you surprise dad with an outdoor pizza oven as a gift!

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound pizza dough
  • 1/2 cup pizza sauce
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 450°F.
  2. Roll out pizza dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12-inch circle.
  3. Transfer dough to a lightly oiled pizza pan or baking sheet and press out to the edges.
  4. Spoon pizza sauce over the dough and spread evenly, leaving a 1/2-inch border around the edge.
  5. Sprinkle mozzarella and Parmesan cheese over the sauce, then top with fresh basil.
  6. Drizzle pizza with olive oil and bake in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  7. Remove pizza from oven and let cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
