Donuts In NYC

I’ve been on a 1,000-calorie/day deficit, and once a week I enjoy a meal out.

This week, we are in contract on our dream house. I couldn’t go out to dinner with my wife, so instead during work calls I headed into the city to pick up some donuts. Here are the spots I stopped at:

1️⃣ @Homie’ s Donuts (@Homies_NYC)
Strawberry Filled
Boston Cream
Fruity Pebbles
Crème brûlée
Glazed
Peanut Butter and Jelly

These were dynamite, especially the crème brûlée and the peanut butter and jelly. Amazing.

2️⃣ @DoughnutPlant NYC (commonly considered one of the best in the city)
Peanut Butter and Jelly
Blackout
Coffee Cake
Wild Berry
Crème brûlée
Strawberry Shortcake

These donuts are much simpler, but the taste is still insanely good. This crème brûlée tasted more like a true crème brûlée from a restaurant.

Overall, you cannot go wrong either of these spots. Absolutely delicious. You can be in incredible shape and still enjoy donuts or a meal out.

TELL ME: Have you ever been to either of these donut spots? Let me know which is your favorite in the comments. 👇
