Donuts that always turn out fluffy: what is the secret of the perfect dough

Sweet and fluffy doughnuts have a lot of fans – they're a delicious pastry that can feed the whole family. The dish is truly perfect when it is low-fat, crispy on top, light and tender on the inside. But not everyone can do it. It all depends on what ingredients you choose for the dough.
