Hi,

These look really good!

I was wondering if you could tell me what brand of strawberry jam you used, and whether i can find it in local supermarkets (woolies/coles etc.)?
i find the conserves (which is often all i can find) offputting. haha

Also, i read in one of the comments that you can add vinegar to normal milk instead of using buttermilk. What would be the ratios? And is white vinegar ok?

Sorry about all the questions..
Thanks in advance!

Hi Aparna-Fantastic! Thanks so much for letting me know They look great!

Hi Stefania-Haha yes all those wonderful things from childhood! Oh I remember Pommes Noisettes! I thought they were the height of elegance!

Hi Myra-So glad that you like them. They’re quite eerily donut like aren’t they!

I made it today and I couldn’t believe how much they taste like jam donuts. It’s so delicious. Will definitely make these again.
A very clever recipe!

[...] to kill two birds by making a cupcake using sour cream. I decided to base the cupcake itself on the Jam Donut cupcakes I had made earlier this year just to upp the donut content so that it wasn’t just the peach [...]

These look amazing – definitely going to make these for my 9yo son! Is it any wonder I love your blog the jam filled donought was my favourite also, as well as cheese twisties, chocolate paddlepops & let’s not forget the chuppa chup!
Being of Italian descent frozen food was not part of our life and Pomme Noisettes were the item in the frozen section that intrigued me most – mum bought them for me once and then I desperately wanted to make them but I must have been 10 or 11 so mum agreed – how hard could it be? – they were a total disaster – I still remember the mess I made in mums kitchen and my distress when my beautiful little balls of potato disintegrated in the oil!! Makes me laugh now!!

Hi Amy-I thought they were very donut like! Not Krispy Kreme like mind you but traditional donut like.

Hi Yvette-Wonderful! That’s fantastic. That’s such a nice thing for you to say! x
