Always unplug the appliance after use. Always unplug the
appliance before cleaning. Leave the appliance to cool
down completely. The donut maker cools down faster
when you open it.
Wipe the outside of the housing and the cooking plates
with a damp cloth and dry. To remove batter baked onto
the cooking surface, pour a small amount of cooking oil
onto the hardened batter. After 5 minutes, wipe with a
paper towel or dry cloth. Never use any abrasives!
Never immerse the appliance into water or other
liquids.

• For jelly donuts, bake donuts as directed and allow to
cool. Split each donut horizontally and spread jelly or
jam between the donut layers.
• To enjoy the fresh and crisp taste of each donut, place
baked donuts on a wire cooling rack. Cooked donuts
may be kept warm before serving and before glazing in
an oven-safe dish. Place the oven-safe dish with donuts
in the oven at 100°C to keep warm.
• If coating donuts with powdered sugar or cinnamon-
sugar, coat donuts while hot. An easy way to do this is to
place powdered sugar or cinnamon-sugar in a paper
lunch-type bag, add hot donuts and shake gently to
coat.
• After pouring batter into the cooking reservoirs, try not
to check the donuts during the first few minutes.
Opening the lid, may cause the donut to separate
before it is cooked.
• Never over mix the donut batter as this could cause the
donuts to become tough. Blend batter ingredients until
large lumps are gone.
• The recommended amount of donut batter for each
cooking reservoir is approximately 2 tablespoons. Use
caution not to overfill the cooking reservoirs.
Donuts can be finished off with a colorful array of sweets
and toppings. Use your creativity with the various
toppings. Remeber, sprinkle donuts while the glaze or
frosting is still moist. Here are some topping suggestions:
• mini chocolate chips
• crushed candy
• toasted chopped nuts
• toasted coconut
• colored sanding sugars
• crushed cookies
