DONUTS FROM PRIMOŠTEN


Donuts are usually associated with a carnival. It is believed that this became custom because the ingredients of the donut were once luxurious and for this reason, they were only prepared once a year. Although in Croatia people often link donuts to the continental part of Croatia, the truth is, even the coast has amazing versions of donuts of their own, such as those from Primošten, a cute little town in mid-Dalmatia.. We bring you a homemade recipe for this delicacy that will delight your family!
