`Christmas Tree treats from A Perfect Pantry`

Doughnuts are great for adding fun to Christmas recipes as they’re so versatile. Here, I’ve given the doughnuts a green tinge and piled them up into the shape of a Christmas tree. You can then take this a step further by decorating it with whatever you’ve got in the pantry, such as sprinkles or silver cachous. Secure them onto your Christmas tree with icing!
