I am not an avid cook or baker, but I love spudnuts and have been trying to find a good recipe for a while. I tried this recipe word for word, and it is written terribly. Not knowing I needed to put the yeast in the water first, I followed the recipe and it said to enter everything at once. Obviously my dough did not rise. As others have said also, my dough turned into a potato soup opposed to something I could ever "roll out". If you are planning on making these you need to be super experienced to be able to read between the lines and understand what you're really supposed to do instead of just being able to follow instructions.

Shouldn't be too critical when the recipe calls for fresh potatoes to be cooked and then mashed. Hard to specify how dry they should be. This is much like using sourdough, when the recipe author has no idea how thick my starter might be. One makes adjustments as needed. I found it necessary to add some flour even in a climate with less than 20% humidity average. If you're a novice, be prepared to add flour to make the dough workable. This is part of the joy of baking; if it was easy, everybody would be doing it!

What is with this recipe?? I ended up with a nice product, but only after having to more than double the amount of flour and not adding the water. Had I followed the recipe to the letter, I would have ended up with dough soup! Very bad instructions, very badly written! If you are not an experienced cook, don't bother with this recipe. It would be great if it had been written properly.

I had to add more flour than recommended to make the dough workable. They are very good doughnuts. I'll make them again.
