Best supermarket doughnuts?

[Thingsthatgo]

I like ring doughnuts and jammy ones too, but I really don't like the ones that use icing sugar on the outside. It has to be proper sugar with a little bit of a crunch that makes you like your lips.
I recently tried warming doughnuts in my air fryer and then adding a little cinnamon sugar, it's going to be my downfall
Anyway... which supermarket makes the best doughnuts?

MFS for bog-standard jam ones.

Sainsbury’s for proper sugar on the outside - yum!

Sainsburys are ok for sugar, I prefer powdered sugar though, Morrisons are powdered

Sainsbury's without a doubt. There is absolutely no comparison at all to any other supermarket doughnut.

Asda Jam Doughnuts are fab - especially a day over when the crunchiness of the sugar goes perfectly with the slight chewiness of the doughnut itself! God, I could go a plate of them right now...

I know you say you don't like the ones with icing and I normally don't either ..but Tesco white sprinkle donuts 🍩 yum 😋

Sainsburys.

Sainsbury's bakery ring sugar donuts are what you need.
I also dislike icing sugar or prefer sugar donuts.
At my Sainsbury's if you get there too late in the day they are sold out.

Aldi ring donuts are quite good.
M&S ring cronuts are good
Not supermarket but Greggs ring donuts are good too.

Morrisons custard filled. Absolute perfection. Sadly I can’t buy them often as I’m the only one that likes them and 5 is a few too many for just me.

Agree with this, every other doughnut is a let down in comparison, I like a doughnut on a Saturday I have to get there before lunch or they have sold out, clearly a lot of people think the same as me!

Morrisons raspberry jam. They are just so soft and overflowing with jam. Thankfully for me I don't live near a Morrisons.

Morrison doughnuts are the best, my husband LOVES them

Even though you said no icing sugar Lidl jam donuts from the bakery are the best ever ever ever

Morrisons jam doughnuts, but they do have icing sugar.

M&S bag of 4 jam doughnuts 👌🏼
I used to love Sainsburys but they have a softer baked not fried type texture these days which isn’t as nice IMO

Sainsburys jam every time

Co-op donuts are lovely and vegan.

I don't live near a Sainsbury's so can't compare with those, but M&S far and away the best jam donuts near me. Granulated sugar, lovely jam, chewy dough. Gorgeous stuff.

Morrisons. No contest. Also vegan (not that I am - step son has allergies and they're always shared on a group I'm on - obv not the custard ones, which are the best imo)

When did this abominable of icing sugar sneak in? It makes my lips feel cold. Is it a cost thing?

M and a jam donuts are delicious!

another Sainsburys fan here! Probably my favourite thing that they sell

Another one for Sainsburys jam doughnuts, I’d make a separate trip to get some!

Asda are the best. I miss the blackcurrant ones too.
I am surprised to see morrisons recommended, maybe they have improved them? The last time I tried them they went in the bin, horribly lardy.
When I was growing up the local baker sold apple doughnuts, they were long like an éclair. They really were the best ( and 22p!)
