Dandelion Donuts

I have not tried these, just got the recipe from a friend. I am willing to cut this in half and give it a shot though…How about you? Be cautious if you use weed killer or fertilizer on your lawn. You may have to borrow from a neighbor who doesn’t, but you might be able to get by with that if you offer some donuts in exchange for dandelions!
