Love how Claire is very respectful. Obviously she’s a pro and knows all/most of these things, but waits for direction and doesn’t feel like she needs to prove herself or get defensive.
Agreed! She is confident in her abilities and doesn't need to prove herself, it's beautiful seeing two brilliant bakers work together without turning it into a competition. ♡
I think it's because she understands that the verbal instructions are for the audience, not for her, because otherwise they would just work in silence, haha
@@AlexandraAndStuff right lol ofc the guest would not be oblivious to the fact that Claire is a very proficient baker. That was just to make it more conversational
It's interesting to see how Claire's personality/demeanor changes depending on how the guest acts. She was much more "student being guided" this episode than before
Vallery just has a more teacher-ish presentation style, so Claire adapted to that. Other guests have come in with more of a peer-having-fun style, probably bc they know Claire or have worked with her before.
I feel like Hal discovered how to make little animated faces on pots and such and now he physically can’t help himself from putting them in every five minutes… and I love that
Claire isn't "pretending not to know" stuff, she's just listening to her guest and learning how she bakes. People in the comments sound so condescending towards Vallery :/
Vallery is also teaching the viewers...she's addressing Claire but she's teaching us too. Your host may know these things but your audience may not. They were wonderful together!
Claire is so amazing, supportive of other fellow bakers. I look forward to Thursdays just for the bright spot that Claire is in everyone’s lives. Besides doughnuts that’s a win win.. ice the doughnut with Vinny’s editing and you’re golden. It will BOB up in the oil, and Bob’s you’re uncle.
I adored this guest! It was so relaxing to watch and learn with Claire, even though she knows all this glorious stuff. just ordered the cookbook Life is What you Bake It!
Great video, I love Vallery and the energy she and Claire have. Wish you would put the guests names in the title of these collab videos though, or even just in the thumbnail.
i think some people in the comments are failing to realize that while the instructions are for the viewers, they are also for claire. she has guests that are more knowledgeable in other areas than she might be so its good to give them the time to shine while she simply follows. id rather her respond to the instructions and have minimal things to say than her asking questions or diverting attention from the recipe because it would take away from the guests and the valuable and fun bits of information that they have about baking. in the end while shes the host, she is also a person who seeks new things to learn so its cool to see what she might take away from each experience she has on dessert people :) thats what makes collabs so fun
I agree with this sentiment, though I do believe Claire does actually know how to make these types of doughnuts (we've seen her make yeast doughnuts on the channel that won't be named and has spoken about cake doughnuts like these before). It's not that she isn't knowledgeable, but rather she's showing respect to the guest because it's their own recipe and she's taking in their way of doing things. But you are right. If Claire was always interjecting with questions the way someone else in the comments wants she runs the risk of interrupting Vallery, butting in awkwardly or centring herself which wouldn't be a good look. That Claire is so accomodating of the guests, lets them take the spotlight and allows them to talk and explain their techniques uninterrupted on her platform is fantastic. What she's doing here is perfectly fine.
Right! She might know what is being talked about but its always good to hear how something can be done from another persons perspective (like when Vallery said not to twist the round cutter and Claire reacted instinctively by twisting it by accident), they both know how to make the same baked good but they have different ways of approaching it.
This my first introduction to Vallery and wow!! Love her and her energy! She's also such a great speaker/teacher. Loved this episode of her and Claire together!
Remember when NYT Cooking channel posted Claire's contributor videos on Fridays so we got two days a week of Dessert Person... those were the days! lol
I made this last weekend and it is so good! I thought I was going to fail for sure because I have never made doughnuts let alone deep fry anything. It is so easy and fun to make. it is fluffy, tangy and delicious! One thing I'd suggest is to double the recipe or triple. The batter for one batch (yielded about 8 doughnuts) is very small the paddle attachment doesn't quite reach and I wasn't confident it was mixing well. It still came out great but next time I'm definitely making a double or triple batch. For mixing reasons and also because it is so so delicious that one batch isn't gonna be enough!!
Claire is absolutely excellent at looking like she doesn't know the directions and tips that she's being told when she absolutely does already know them. I really appreciate it as someone who doesn't know.
I loved this video - please keep dessert people coming. I would have been really interested to hear how someone goes from lawyer to baker, how awesome?!
The comments of how Claire is “pretending not to know this stuff” are weird and ring of privledge. Claire is just listening to her guest and *their* recipe and how *they* make doughnuts. She’s learning how others may approach recipes and recipe development. You can always learn new things. So thank you, Claire for having Valery on the show, genuinely learning and listening to other pros and “dessert people.” I really love old fashioned doughnuts
Your first line sounds like some woke crap (privilege???), but the rest I do agree with. What does any of this, or the viewers' take on it have to do with privilege? I did also get the feeling that maybe she was acting a little, but I figured it was just the way she knew how to follow and respect the methods of her guest while making a video for others to learn from. If I was in Claire's shoes, I likely would have said, "oh that is not how I have done it in the past, let's see how it works out." Luckily, I don't make entertainment or instructional videos, but not commenting much made it seem professional and made for a "cleaner" video because the audience could focus on the guests methods....obviously the point of the video. My favorite is the old fashioned plain, no glaze.
I adore how these two amazing, highly-qualified women speak to one another. Claire knows how to make doughnuts, but here she is, deferring to her guest!
Claire! It's so wonderful being able to see inside your kitchen and to hear your thought process as you bake. I've made so many of your recipes and they are beautifully balanced, my self proclaimed "not-a-dessert-person" partner gobbles up every single one! I also love that you pair up with other bakers and introduce us to more brilliant people in the baking world. Thanks to your RUclips shows and your book, you've made me a more confident and creative baker. Thank you for everything!! I wish you all the happiness and success in everything you do. ❤️
My Grandma and I make cake donuts together for Christmas every year, and have been doing it since I was 9 or 10. We have one recipe that has a little bit of lemon zest in it and they are so good! We usually make the dough the day before, and leave it outside on the porch over night to firm up. (Living in the countryside in Norway, that’s where all food/leftovers are stored during winter 😂)
Honestly I was going to go to sleep for a little after working all night for my college classes. But then I got a bell notification and it’s already 10:30am so here I am watching Claire make donuts lol. 😍🤤
Yes!! Claire, I watch you every Thursday on the treadmill 😆. Grad school has been great since i started following your cookbook! And now doughnuts from Dessert People!! Thank you!
My husband and I moved out of the US about a year ago and haven’t had real donuts since, you have no idea how excited he was when I surprised him with these!
Oh my goodness, those donuts look SO good! Usually I prefer yeasted donuts, but these ones look like such a cut above any other donut I've had. Great video!
Omg I just walked past there the other day when I was looking for sushi in the Asian ghetto! Did a double take when I read your comment lol. Any other good food recs in Berkeley?
@@hannahnairn581 I haven’t spent a ton of time in Berkeley so don’t have too many, but one of my favorites is to get Samosas with Tikka Masala sauce for dipping from Barbarian Pizza Lounge (now called Barbarian Grub & Ale). Their chicken tikka masala sandwich is also super yummy!
Ohhh cake donuts are my absolute fav & these look amazing. Claire's comment "I want the glaze" says perfect sweetness, not sugar overload. Love this 💖👍👍.
claire has such great chemistry with all her guests, this series has quickly become my favorite on the channel ❤️ keep up the good work dessert people!
I was ACTUALLY just daydreaming about homemade old fashions this morning before getting ready for the day. Then I remembered it's Thursdays (and we all know Thursdays are for dessert!) I see Claire with Vallery on the thumbnail while pulling up RUclips, this is a daydream come true ! I appreciate the recipe Vallery created--I do need some quick delicious recipes, and this checks out 1000%. I know that I'll be making these for sure if not today then absolutely tomorrow. Thanks for continuing to inspire us with recipes and content like this :)
I moved today, and it was super tiring. This is the last thing I'm watching before crashing for the night. So happy there was a Dessert People vid to end my very long, difficult day.
My son just got a job at a local apple farm, helping to make their fried cakes on the weekends. He comes home smelling so good! I will try making these for sure. I like mine w/ cinnamon & sugar, & a mug of warm cider. 😋
This is so silly, but I almost cried when I heard that "dessert people" and the animation showed people arriving it's been a heck of a year and I hope that we slowly, but surely, return to life as we knew it.
OMG OLD FASHION GLAZED!! These are my favourite!! As a Canadian I can say that the old fashion glazed are my favourite tim hortons donut. Definitely want to make these at home!!
Claire, you can adjust the speed of your mixer super easily by removing the back cover and adjusting the screws. I had the same issue with mine throwing flour everywhere.
Claire and Vallery! We made these this weekend, and they were delicious! I am not usually a donut fan (too sweet) but my husband is, and we both loved these. :) Thanks for the awesome recipe and video!
Got Claire’s cookbook yesterday and today when I saw the “Thrice-Baked Rye Cookies” I knew I had to try them. Just finished making them and they are delicious! And also a very unique experience, kind of a cookie/brownie and having a very interesting and good flavor.
My mother grew up during the depression so by necessity was an early creator/adopter of environmentalist practices. When frying donuts, she used saved bacon fat, and instead of using paper towels, she drained the donuts in cardboard egg cartons. The donuts were always coated with sugar, which was done by one lucky child who got the first taste. I’m definitely going to try this recipe, as hers has been lost.
I loved this recipe so unusual with the baking powder. Also seeing the ginger hourse makes me so excited for the hollidays season in the kitchen of dessert person ! *Screams*
I love the seemless cut when you were doing the powder sugar for the glaze. It's like "don't notice the 2 different sifters for the sugar! Because we needed a larger one" haha ;) But seriously though, nice cut. Haha
Best donut I ever had: apple cider donut with apple cider glaze We were visiting upstate NY from Utah and the apples were fresh and in season....soooooooo good. I remember the flavor and this was like 7 years ago!!
Anyone else notice the change in bowl and sieve around 10:15? Took me a double take, and the explanation continued so perfectly - well done to the editors 😉☺️
Awesome collab! I love Vallery and I love the "Dessert People" adaptation. Most importantly, I love donuts! Can you make cruellers and boston cream next??
These people are very kind and generous to share the valuable and helpful information on making homemade sour cream cake donuts. This video is well made and easy to follow, with the recipe included. Without good videos like this one, I would be like a donut; I would be "GLAZED AND CONFUSED." Yes, pun intended, but I am now inspired to make homemade donuts. Love the idea of glaze with added melted butter, milk, powder sugar, and vanilla extract. An idea for this same glaze would be to mix in some cinnamon. You can also have chocolate, strawberry, or maple flavor glaze. Maybe coat the donuts with strawberry pink color glaze and immediately add rod shaped candy sprinkles before the glaze dries for a "HOMER SIMPSON" donut. Like the taste of chocolate covered strawberries, combine half strawberry flavor glaze and chocolate glaze for a spectacular flavor you will not likely find at the donut shop. Of course, with leftover dough, maybe make "donut sticks" that are not more than 1½ inch or 3 to 4 centimeters wide.
Doughnuts! What are your favorite kind of doughnuts?
bavarian!!! also munchkins! would love to try sourdoughnuts omg
Been loving Boston atm
Blane Glazed donuts 🍩 🥰🥰
Cream filled doughnut and doughnut holes! 🤸🍩
Chocolate glazed donuts 😋
Love how Claire is very respectful. Obviously she’s a pro and knows all/most of these things, but waits for direction and doesn’t feel like she needs to prove herself or get defensive.

@@AlexandraAndStuff this!! Lol!
@@AlexandraAndStuff right lol ofc the guest would not be oblivious to the fact that Claire is a very proficient baker. That was just to make it more conversational
Claire's a good person, and that's why we're here.
It's interesting to see how Claire's personality/demeanor changes depending on how the guest acts. She was much more "student being guided" this episode than before
I loved it! Being teachable is a real skill
yeah it’s great, she’s taking on the audiences role so we can be explained to
She has a history of donut-related problems. Watch her and Brad Leone’s three attempts; best RUclips ever😂
Vallery just has a more teacher-ish presentation style, so Claire adapted to that. Other guests have come in with more of a peer-having-fun style, probably bc they know Claire or have worked with her before.
@@faunivore9485 Totally. I would love to take a class from Vallery!
I feel like Hal discovered how to make little animated faces on pots and such and now he physically can’t help himself from putting them in every five minutes… and I love that
Cal?
and I'm so here for it, esp the evil/mischevious faces haha
@@Iskaral1 Hal, the editor. Cal is the camera operator.
it's so funny
Came to the comments to say how much I enjoy those little faces :)
the little face appearing on things like bowls or pots is so cute honestly one of the best things about this channel
Yeah it's cute, but it's becoming a bit overdone.
I hate it.
i felt vinny’s pride when claire finally said ring the bell
It's a momentous occasion.
If Claire and Vallery opened a bakery together, I would gladly use every single dollar I earned to keep them in business.
I would use every single dollar I have just because I want donuts.
The gingerbread house in the background made me so excited for these episodes during the holiday season!
I know! I kept looking at that house lol.
The (presumably) pumpkin pie in front of it too!
@@Kimichitsuzuku I don’t know how I didn’t notice that!
Yes, I spotted it and the pie and I’m hoping we get some holiday baking vids soon:)
@@hillarycusenza3359 me too!!
Claire isn't "pretending not to know" stuff, she's just listening to her guest and learning how she bakes. People in the comments sound so condescending towards Vallery :/
No matter how much you know, there's always more to learn. I'm glad Claire recognizes that fact.
She was been respectful, but I'm sure she knows how to make donuts...
Is not condescending to say that, Claire isn't an idiot.
@@PRDreams no one said she was. Read to understand.
Vallery is also teaching the viewers...she's addressing Claire but she's teaching us too. Your host may know these things but your audience may not.
They were wonderful together!
Lol typical defensive comment because Vallery’s a black girl. We get it. You’re fighting racism.
The Sourdooouughtnut saga may be my favourite content from the before place.
The long long ago
We do not speak of the beforefore
The past is a country I no longer visit but sometimes I miss the chaos
The Upside Down
Right. The Place of Which We Do Not Speak. 🙅♀️
Claire is so amazing, supportive of other fellow bakers. I look forward to Thursdays just for the bright spot that Claire is in everyone’s lives. Besides doughnuts that’s a win win.. ice the doughnut with Vinny’s editing and you’re golden. It will BOB up in the oil, and Bob’s you’re uncle.

I adored this guest! It was so relaxing to watch and learn with Claire, even though she knows all this glorious stuff. just ordered the cookbook Life is What you Bake It!
Also, she has her own channel!
@@talideon ohh, thank you for letting me know! subscribing now.
I love Claire’s hands when she gets excited about how the food looks
Vallery could teach her own class! She's so expressive, clear, and seems lovely to work with! This was great and I can't wait to try this recipe :)
Great video, I love Vallery and the energy she and Claire have. Wish you would put the guests names in the title of these collab videos though, or even just in the thumbnail.
Good point 👍🏼
Vallery has such a calming, educational voice 🥰 I would trust her to not judge my ugly donuts
the little faces on random things is one of my favorite things ever lol kudos to whoever adds those in!!
ngl when I saw the two holes at the top of the thermometer, I thought "the editor's gonna put a face there."
I love how she just walked in and got to it. Claire's word of the day is "Okay"
Really enjoyed Vallery as a guest, she has such a lovely personality. Also, lawyer-turned-baker?! What a dream!
“Life is what you bake it” would be the greatest life’s motto for an optimistic baker lol
I want to get that engraved or something.
i think some people in the comments are failing to realize that while the instructions are for the viewers, they are also for claire. she has guests that are more knowledgeable in other areas than she might be so its good to give them the time to shine while she simply follows. id rather her respond to the instructions and have minimal things to say than her asking questions or diverting attention from the recipe because it would take away from the guests and the valuable and fun bits of information that they have about baking. in the end while shes the host, she is also a person who seeks new things to learn so its cool to see what she might take away from each experience she has on dessert people :) thats what makes collabs so fun

Oh wow, old fashioned doughnuts make that ridge-y shape by themselves?! :0 I had no idea.
Love this guest. She's so knowledgeable and approachable. Love this girl power energy between these two
*Vallery adds more flour to the dough*
3 seconds later: "there's too much flour on the dough, we can take it off with this handy tool" xDD
because you add flour to work with the dough and remove it when it's time to pick it up and fry it ;) it makes sense in both cases
@@AlexandraAndStuff no, she added flour before cutting out the circles, but removed said flour 3 seconds later before cutting ouf the circles still
9:24 - I just love Claire's reaction when Vallery mentions the glaze! More deliciousness on those doughnuts!!
This my first introduction to Vallery and wow!! Love her and her energy! She's also such a great speaker/teacher. Loved this episode of her and Claire together!
Ok, but the way the sieve changed on 10:09 , EDITING MAGIC 😂
Remember when NYT Cooking channel posted Claire's contributor videos on Fridays so we got two days a week of Dessert Person... those were the days! lol
I'm sure we'll get more of those eventually. They'd be silly to not have her back after how many views her videos got and how well received they were.
Vallery is a natural teacher/host and Claire was a great respectful student.
I made this last weekend and it is so good! I thought I was going to fail for sure because I have never made doughnuts let alone deep fry anything. It is so easy and fun to make. it is fluffy, tangy and delicious!
One thing I'd suggest is to double the recipe or triple.

I loved this video - please keep dessert people coming. I would have been really interested to hear how someone goes from lawyer to baker, how awesome?!
This feels like the most respectful episode ever and the cutest. Two wonderful pastry chefs just bursting with kindness and learning.

Same! I was about to go weed the garden... nope, gotta watch dessert people. Priorities!
My two favorite chefs coming together to make my favorite food? Today’s gonna be a good day
I love this! It makes me feel like Claire is us in the kitchen listing to all the instructions. Always learning
donuts aka the perfect MEAL. yes, meal
As an American, I second this statement.
It’s cool having two people on the show. I love the solo episodes as well but it’s nice having multiple people and seeing them play off each other
Honestly I was going to go to sleep for a little after working all night for my college classes. But then I got a bell notification and it’s already 10:30am so here I am watching Claire make donuts lol. 😍🤤
claire is so attentive and let the guest lead. claire is a great host

Loved this episode! I hope we get to see more Cozy Cabin Claire content soon though.
When Vallery said “bench flour” I heard “bitch flour”, I laughed hysterically, and I will never not call it bitch flour from now on.
thought i was the only one! "bitch scraper" too. Made me giggle.
@@shobe8093 love it!
Ahaahah I love this “my bitch flour”
Commenting to feed the algorithm. Claire is awesome!
it's cute how you can tell it's their first time meeting together, it's kinda awkward in the most adorable way possible between these two
Definitely need more Vallery. She was great! You were both so informative and funny. Great video.
I moved today, and it was super tiring. This is the last thing I'm watching before crashing for the night. So happy there was a Dessert People vid to end my very long, difficult day.
This made me think about Brad and Claire’s doughnut episodes
Brad's golden retriever energy made it so hard. This seems so easy.
My son just got a job at a local apple farm, helping to make their fried cakes on the weekends. He comes home smelling so good!
I will try making these for sure. I like mine w/ cinnamon & sugar, & a mug of warm cider. 😋
I don't usually go for cake doughnuts, but Old Fashioneds are so good! Something about the sour cream makes them so rich and delightful.
I love Vallery’s energy and the occasional giggle, I feel so safe here
Laughed pretty hard at how the powdered sugar was going all over the place. Good video, I really like the "Dessert People" series.
This is so silly, but I almost cried when I heard that "dessert people" and the animation showed people arriving it's been a heck of a year and I hope that we slowly, but surely, return to life as we knew it.
I'm so excited to consider that I could do rosewater glaze on old fashioned donuts. Also, Vallery's necklace is lovely!
Omg. I love donuts. Glazed Old Fashioned are my favorite!!!
Valery and Claire complement each other so well!
OMG OLD FASHION GLAZED!! These are my favourite!! As a Canadian I can say that the old fashion glazed are my favourite tim hortons donut. Definitely want to make these at home!!
I made these today and they were INCREDIBLE. Thanks Claire and Vallery!
I love old fashioned donuts and I have never thought to make them myself. Def a recipe I will have to give a try
5:04 i love these little animations 😭

Awesome collab! I love Vallery and I love the "Dessert People" adaptation. Most importantly, I love donuts! Can you make cruellers and boston cream next??
These people are very kind and generous to share the valuable and helpful information on making homemade sour cream cake donuts. This video is well made and easy to follow, with the recipe included. Without good videos like this one, I would be like a donut; I would be "GLAZED AND CONFUSED." Yes, pun intended, but I am now inspired to make homemade donuts. Love the idea of glaze with added melted butter, milk, powder sugar, and vanilla extract. An idea for this same glaze would be to mix in some cinnamon. You can also have chocolate, strawberry, or maple flavor glaze. Maybe coat the donuts with strawberry pink color glaze and immediately add rod shaped candy sprinkles before the glaze dries for a "HOMER SIMPSON" donut. Like the taste of chocolate covered strawberries, combine half strawberry flavor glaze and chocolate glaze for a spectacular flavor you will not likely find at the donut shop. Of course, with leftover dough, maybe make "donut sticks" that are not more than 1½ inch or 3 to 4 centimeters wide.
Vallery did a great job explaining what to do.
The Gingerbread house in the background! I can wait:)
