Dough + Nuts = Donuts?? O.o

[kakatokkatok]

I've always wondered who invented donuts..and why it was created? I mean, seriously, who would think of a yummy pastry with a hole right in the middle of it? What's the use of the hole? I've thought that maybe something blew up in the oven and the cake only sunk in the middle. Is that even possible (haha)? Are munchkins made from poking the middle

History of the Donut

The doughnut originated in the sixteenth century in Holland. The hole in the doughnut's center appeared in the first half of the nineteenth century.
Hanson Gregory, a sea captain from Maine, is said to have poked holes in his mother's doughnuts in 1847 because he didn't like the pastry's soggy center. The result of his experiment was that the doughnut's surface fried more uniformly and the soggy center was gone.
