Hybrid donut desserts offer the best of both worlds. While a standard donut is always an enjoyable treat, these donuts fuse other dessert flavors and aesthetics in one decadent treat.
The cronut is one of the most popular hybrid donut desserts. While the Dominique Ansel Bakery invention is well-loved in NYC, Benny's Bakery & Ice Cream Shoppe's cannoli cronut is a three-part hybrid that has taken New Jersey by storm. Hybrid donut desserts can also be campfire-friendly as is exemplified by Amy of food blog Oh, Bite It! The dessert chef utilizes glazed donuts for her donut s'mores recipe while Macarons Parlour decorates its doughy treat with graham cracker toppings and an icing drizzle.
In addition to these indulgent creations, other notable donut desserts also include Oreo-stuffed donut creations as well as treats that are infused with apple fritters and custard.
