Recipe tips It’s important to use sliced farmhouse or a similar fairly open textured bread for the camp doughnuts, so it absorbs the egg mixture without going soggy. For an irresistible cream to serve with the ‘doughnut’, whip double cream with some finely grated orange and lime zest and a little caster sugar until soft and pillowy. For a great alternative, make the sandwiches with marmalade and add ½ teaspoon of Chinese five-spice powder to the sugar instead of cinnamon.
