Why do Donuts have holes in them?

For writing this week we were doing Explanation texts. An explanation text is tells people how something works or how it happen's. My Explanation text was Why do donuts have holes in them. Here is a look of it! 


Explanation Text: Why do Donuts have holes?
The reason why we should thank Captain Hanson Gregory an American who came from the 19th century for making the hole in donuts! It all started when he didn’t fancy his mother's half baked fritters, his mother Mrs Gregory loved to bake them but Sir Hanson often noticed that the insides weren’t cooked properly so one day in 1947 he had an idea to pierce the donuts. He grabbed a pepper tin and made a hole in the middle. When the donut was cooking it suddenly came in contact with a larger part of the dough so that it would cook all around. The Final result were freshly baked donuts with a hole in them!

These are all the different types of donuts
  1.  Chocolate frosted donut
  2. Cinnamon twist donut
  3. Strawberry frosted donut 
  4. Old fashioned donut 
  5. Jelly donut 
  6. Blueberry donut 
  7. Glazed donut 
  8. Cream filled donut 
  9. Boston kreme pie donut 
  10. Sour cream donut 
  11. Apple crumb donut
  12. Chocolate donut 
  13. Sprinkle donut 

And many many many more!
