Question
What is the blessing on a doughnut when it is fried in deep oil in such a way that the taste of the oil is clearly felt in the dough?
Answer
Up to 2 doughnuts, one blesses 'Mezonot', and there is no obligation to eat them specifically during the meal. More than 2 doughnuts, ideally a God-fearing person should eat them during the meal and intend to exempt them with the blessing 'Hamotzi', and if he did not intend, if he eats them for satiation, they are exempted with 'Hamotzi', and if for pleasure, he exempts them with something that is certainly 'Mezonot', such as 'Kariot' cereal, etc. And when eating them not during the meal, even many, one blesses 'Mezonot' and 'Al Hamichya'.
