jam doughnut

Fruity filled treat

A jam doughnut is a round, deep-fried pastry filled with jam—typically raspberry or strawberry—and coated in sugar.

Unlike ring doughnuts, jam doughnuts are solid, with the filling injected after frying.

The term is primarily British; Americans more often say jelly doughnut.

I grabbed a jam doughnut with my coffee.
