Donuts will either go stale or soggy if kept in the refrigerator
If you love donuts as much as Homer Simpson, then you probably already know that you shouldn’t keep them in the refrigerator. That’s because the dough does not react well to the cold and damp conditions within the vessel. They will either become extremely stale to the point that even you, the donut obsessed, probably won’t enjoy it.
Even if your donuts don’t go stale, there’s a chance they will become extremely soggy and floppy. To maintain the fluffiness and the texture of a donut, you shouldn’t keep it anywhere near moisture. Instead, you should keep them in an airtight container and away from direct sunlight to make sure they are constantly delicious.
