Free doughnut day Krispy Kreme locations

Claiming your doughnut at Krispy Kreme locations is pretty easy. Krispy Kreme has a list of participating locations on their website. Once you’ve found a participating store, stop in once they open on June 4. Once you stop in and ask for your free doughnut, they should have plenty ready. Don't forget to thank the doughnut shop employees. At Krispy Kreme, the offer is only good when supplies last, so you’ll want to be sure to stop in on your way to work, not on the way home.

Free Dunkin Donuts doughnut

Getting a free doughnut at Dunkin Donuts is mildly a lot more difficult. Dunkin Doughnuts locations are offering a free doughnut, but only with a drink purchase. So stop into the nearest Dunkin Donuts , purchase an iced coffee or other drink, and claim your free doughnut. Just like anything else, thank your Dunkin Donuts shop employees – it is going to be a very long day at work for them.

Celebrate your own National Doughnut Day

Just because a doughnut isn't healthy doesn't mean you can't celebrate National Doughnut Day. Don't worry about visiting Krispy Kreme locations or Dunkin Donuts locations. Try making your own instead. Start by creating a basic sweet dough, then just fry it and top as you wish. Try this recipe if it's your first time:

  • Single large egg
  • 1/4 cup sugar or sugar substitute
  • 1/4 cup agave nectar or honey
  • 1/2 cup milk or milk substitute
  • 2 tablespoons melted shortening
  • 2 cups flour
  • two teaspoons baking powder, for rise
  • Any toppings you would like – frosting, sprinkles, or cinnamon and sugar

Combine all the wet ingredients, then stir them to the flour and baking powder. Chill the dough until you can effortlessly work it, then roll it to half an inch thick. Heat vegetable oil to 375 degrees while the dough is chilling. Once you've cut out the shapes, fry them for a couple of minutes on each side. Drain the doughnuts on paper towel, and top to your pleasure.
