Question: are krispy kreme donuts fried?
Answer: Like most doughnuts, Krispy Kremes are fried (cooked in oil). Frying cooks the dough rapidly from the outside in to give the doughnuts their distinctive crispy texture. The flipper turns the doughnuts over midway through the oil. ... Since the doughnuts are floating, the bath only cooks one side at a time.
