Donuts are pretty good and watermelon donuts are even better, which is what makes this recipe so awesome. These aren’t donuts in the traditional sense, so don’t try dunking them in your coffee. They only look like donuts, which is part of what makes them so cool. For extra donutlike appeal, feel free to swap out the almond slivers for sprinkles.
By the way, is it spelled “donut” or “doughnut”? I tend to favor the shorter version, but I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I’m really busy and I don’t have time to type that extra “ugh”.
