When it comes to American cuisine and travel, Houston has proven to be a fantastic destination. Unique Houston-style doughnuts are available in both sweet and savoury varieties. Even all-in-one breakfast doughnuts and spicy doughnuts with sour cream are presented like regal delicacies. 

Doughnuts are an unexpected treat in Houston, a city known for its daring decisions. It might make a delicious supper or the ideal dessert. Though incredibly underappreciated, Houston's cafes and dessert spots are undoubtedly the tastiest in the country. 

7 Doughnuts From The Fantastic Shops In Houston. 

1. The Grove Do-Nutz & Deli: Strawberry Cheesecake Doughnuts

There are a few other cafes serving strawberry cheesecake doughnuts in the area, but The Grove takes things a step further by using cronuts (the well-known croissant-doughnut mash-up) as the doughnut basis. A substantial doughnut topped with a layer of fine graham cracker crumbs, a dollop of whipped cream, a fresh strawberry, and a drizzle of strawberry frosting is created by layers of flaky, crispy, just-greasy-enough dough. It's pure, unmatched deliciousness even in comparison to other mouthwatering selections like the salted caramel doughnuts, cookie butter, or red velvet.

Must-Try Dishes: Chocolate Frosted Doughnut, Cinnamon Sugar Twist Doughnut

Price for 2: $50 approx.

2. Doughmaker's: Orange Pistachio Doughnuts

The s'mores doughnut in this place is the best. It comes with a huge bronzed marshmallow on top of chocolate ganache and a coating of graham cracker crumbs. Even as you wait for its return, the classic orange blossom-honey pistachio is a crowd-pleaser. The strange yet pleasant flavour combination is topped with crushed pistachios and an artisanal-ish citrus-infused honey glaze. Are you craving any protein? A slice of crispy fried chicken on top of Doughmaker's flawlessly crusty doughnuts makes for a delicious honey butter fried chicken stunner.

3. The Ripe Cuisine: Vegan Maple Bacon Doughnut

The maple bacon doughnut at Ripe Cuisine isn't your typical pork-dotted, salty-sweet treat. A soft vegan cake doughnut foundation and a light glaze go well with the somewhat chewy, salty-sweet bites that the Ripe team's coconut "bacon" creates. Visit the Eastside Farmer's Market on Saturdays to have these incredibly tasty—and one should say healthful—doughnuts from the Ripe Cuisine truck.

Must-Try Dishes: Cinnamon Sugar Doughnut, Matcha Glazed Doughnut

Price for 2: $50 approx.

4. Doughcones: The Doughcone

As one of the more distinctive in Houston, one can't help but glaze over the most useful doughnut ever. Since these dough cones are baked rather than fried, you may feel somewhat guilt-free even though your cinnamon-sugar-covered doughnut cone will be heaped with creamy soft serve and as many toppings as you like. Try a "conedae" for a unique take on doughnut cones; it consists of diced pieces of churro cone served in a cup with soft serve and toppings.

Location: 812 Live Oak St, Houston, TX 77003, United States

Timings: Mon-Sun: 10:00 am to 11:00 pm

Must-Try Dishes: Salted Caramel Doughcone, Raspberry Jam Filled Doughcone

5. Morningstar: Pineapple And Lime Fritter With Salt 

For those who like a slightly chewy doughnut, Morningstar's numerous yeast-based doughnut variations offer a slightly chewier basis. There are crags and valleys full of a delectably sweet glaze all over the salted lime and pineapple fritter. Also, Tuesdays are $12 for a dozen doughnuts. Inversion and Blacksmith are just two of the Houston coffee shops that sell Morningstar doughnuts, so don't worry if you can't make it to the Heights location before they close at three p.m.

Location: 2315 Richmond Ave., Houston, TX 77098, United States

Timings: Mon-Sun: 10:00 am to 11:00 pm

6. Lee's Fried Chicken & Donuts: The Glitter Doughnut

The glitter doughnut at Lee's includes a swirl of purple frosting strewn with an explosion of colourful sprinkles fit for a real unicorn, proving that the unicorn craze hasn't faded yet. The glitter doughnut will go through the lineup occasionally, along with favourites like the Mexican chocolate, blueberry cake, and birthday cake doughnuts; however, it won't always be available. Watch out for the rotating peanut butter and green apple doughnut and the weekly Sunday-only doughnut, which is always made by pastry chef Alyssa Dole using ingredients from the area.

7. Hugs & Donuts: Baklava Doughnuts 

A brand-new baklava doughnut with a cake doughnut foundation drenched in sweet syrup and covered with a mountain of crispy noodles and pistachios debuted on July 1st at Hugs & Donuts. If baklava isn't your thing, you could like the vegan doughnuts from Hugs & Donuts, a peaches and cream kolache, or an Oreo cookie crumble. The vegan doughnuts are so popular that they're now available every day of the week rather than only on the weekends.
