Sweet Potato Donuts Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Sweet Potato Donuts Recipe). I was looking for a \"healthy\" donut recipe that used the deep-frying method, not the oven-baked method, since I just got a deep fryer. I couldn't find what I was looking for, so combined the Plain Cake Doughnut recipe, with another healthier recipe, then added a few extra touches with a friend one rainy day, and came up with this.
