Question
Is doughnut dough required to have challah separated?
Answer
Greetings and Happy Hanukkah
From doughnut dough starting from 1.2 kg, challah is separated. And always without a blessing.
Even if one made dough that is more than 2.25 kg, which usually requires a blessing, here it is exempt. [Due to the doubt that it might be considered a dish exempt from separating challah].
Source
The Shulchan Aruch (Siman 329) exempts from separating challah, and the Shach there wrote to separate challah without a blessing (see Tosafot Berachot 37 and Pesachim 37)
