Question

What blessing is recited over 2 doughnuts (regular, not mini) or more?

Answer

Ideally, they should be eaten during a meal, with the intention that the 'Hamotzi' blessing covers the doughnuts. A God-fearing person will be careful to eat them only during a meal. However, if they are eaten outside of a meal, the blessings 'Mezonot' and 'Al HaMichya' are recited. Even if a very large quantity is consumed, 'Al HaMichya' is recited.
