Favorite Five: Donuts

Glazed donut and donut holes from Oxford Doughnut Shoppe

I’m a minimalist through and through, even when it comes to donuts. There are only a few flavors I absolutely love (think glazed, chocolate, and cinnamon sugar), and these are the places that do them best:
Holtman’s Donuts yeast with chocolate icing
Seemingly everyone knows about Holtman’s, but their donuts really are that good.
Location: Loveland, Over-the-Rhine, Williamsburg; Coming Soon: West Chester
Graeter’s sugar twist
One of my all-time favorite donuts. So simple and delicious.

Oxford Doughnut Shoppe glazed yeast donut
Truly the best glazed donut I’ve ever had, and I love glazed donuts.
Location: 120 S Locust St, Oxford, Ohio
Servatii glazed yeast donut (only in shape)
Yeast glazed donuts are a simple pleasure and Servatii does it so well. Soft and sweet and chewy and delicious. Fabulous texture and great flavor.

Tweedles Mini Donuts (aka Daylight Donuts)
Fresh mini donuts made to order. I got half glazed and half with chocolate sauce. So warm and delicious!

Honorable Mention: Busken sugar twist, Top This Donut Bar, Tom + Chee’s grilled cheese donut
If you have any suggestions, I’m all ears. I love donuts!
