I say we go with it, it makes sense ๐ฏ๐ฏ๐คฃ๐๐ซ๐๐ฝ๐ค
Don't listen to me ever, I am so wrong ๐
๐๐๐๐คฃ๐ damn, I liked your answer!
I found this (when I say I found, I copied the first answer I saw ๐คฃ):
โThe โnutโ could be because the olykoeks looked like crunchy, wrinkly walnuts once they had been fried, whereas other sources say that it was because bakers added nuts to the dough to add flavourโ
I like your answer better ๐ฏ put it seems no one really knows why. Doughnut mystery ๐ค tanels asking the right questions.
Real talk though? I want a doughnut with some like.. toasted pecans on it. And caramel. And bacon. ๐คค
Bacon on a doughnut? ๐คฏ we need to talk about this ๐ค thatโs a fancy doughnut David. I like plain but I never thought to put something savoury with it, intriguing ๐ฅ๐ฏ.
Sweet, salty, savory, nutty, umami. It's kind of the perfect food.
Had one at this beach doughnut shop in California this year and it was the most incredible thing I've ever tasted.
It does sound good ๐คค๐
Damn, that sounds good ๐ฅน do you have pictures? Someone should do a food porn account ๐.
Have you ever had an almond croissant ? Itโs not as exciting but itโs so good ๐๐ฏ I eat them sparingly because they are too good ๐ค
Can't find a pic with pecans but here's what salted caramel bacon doughnut looks like.

And yes! I love any kind of croissant but an almond croissant is something special. We have a french bakery nearby that makes a great one.
This looks so fancy!! ๐๐ฏ๐ ah man lucky. We have a cafe here called Gailโs that I rather like ๐คค they have great stuff
so we still dough knot know the answer?
Straight to jail. Do not pass go. Do not collect ยฃ200. That joke was criminal ๐คฃ๐๐ซ
He stole my heart though (nut)
