jelly doughnut

Jam-stuffed fried treat

A jelly doughnut is a round, deep-fried pastry filled with fruit jam or jelly, typically without a center hole.

The filling is injected after frying, and the outside is usually coated with powdered or granulated sugar.

Regional names vary: Berliners in parts of Europe, sufganiyot in Jewish tradition, bismarcks in the American Midwest.
