Daring Bakers March 2013 - Hidden Veggies Challenge

I know I'm late but look what I'm bringing you - doughnuts! This month our host Ruth from Makey-Cakey challenge us to make something sweet with hidden veggies in it. My first idea was to make tomato soup chocolate cake. But then my kids asked me for doughnuts and I came up with this recipe. I actually found something similar in one of my cookbooks but I didn't really like their recipe. I change it a lot and came up with something really (and I mean really) special. Try it, you won't be sorry...

  1. Koja genijalna ideja napraviti krafnice s krompirom i mrkvom. Osim skrivenih okusa, ovaj recept mami i izgledom!

  2. Odlično izgledaju, kao obične krafne, samo mislim da su ove bolje. Kako su krafne visoko ovisne, izbjegavam ih:)
