Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
In a medium pot over medium-low heat, combine the cherries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and cook until the mixture thickens and becomes syrupy, about 5 minutes.
-
Step 2.
Transfer the cherry filling to a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until needed (at least 30 minutes to cool completely).
-
Step 3.
Prepare the chosen raised dough for filled doughnuts and fry or bake according to the recipe instructions. Let the doughnuts cool completely on a wire rack.
-
Step 4.
Once the doughnuts are cool, use a sharp knife to cut a small divot in the top center of each doughnut, being careful not to cut all the way through. Repeat with all doughnuts.
-
Step 5.
Spoon a small amount of the cooled cherry filling into each divot, filling it level with the top of the doughnut.
-
Step 6.
Drizzle the tops of the filled doughnuts with the almond glaze and let set before serving.
