Donuts with Dad: Celebrate Father's Day with Texas Olive Oil

Donuts with Dad: A Father's Day Event

Father's Day is more than just a special day; it's an opportunity to honor the father figures in our lives and show them our appreciation. Many schools and communities organize Father's Day events, and one popular activity is the annual Donuts with Dad event. This fun-filled morning allows children to spend quality time with their dads or father figures while indulging in delicious donuts. The day of the event, families gather in the school community, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The aroma of freshly baked donuts fills the air, and for some it's the highlight of their year.

But you don't need a school event to make donuts and dad - you can have a great time right at home! Surprise dad with donuts made just for him, or even get dad in on the action and have a full family baking day!

Incorporating Texas Olive Oil into Donut Recipes

When it comes to making donuts with your dad, incorporating Texas olive oil can take the experience to a whole new level. Texas olive oil is not only a healthier alternative to traditional cooking oils but also adds a unique depth of flavor to your baked goods.

Replacing your butter with Texas olive oil to your donut batter creates a moist and tender texture while imparting a hint of fruity notes. It elevates the taste of classic glazed donuts, infuses richness into chocolate donuts, and pairs beautifully with herbs like rosemary for a savory-sweet combination.

Some may be surprised to hear you can bake with olive oil - but it's truly the perfect baking oil! High-quality EVOO has a smoke point of around 410 degrees Fahrenheit, which is higher than the typical temperature required for baking. We recommend using delicate olive oil, like our Sola Stella Extra Virgin, to replicate some of those buttery notes. 

Plus, Texas olive oil can be a versatile ingredient in your culinary adventures beyond donut-making. Use it to create vibrant salad dressings, sauté vegetables, or even replace other oils or butter in your baking recipes. Its distinctive flavors and health benefits make it an excellent addition to your kitchen pantry.

And we can't forget about our Balsamic Vinegar! You can use it to make delicious balsamic frostings, glazes, or jelly fillings for your donuts - there are truly so many possibilities! Especially with so many flavor options, strawberry or white lemon, there is a flavor for everyone.
