Host Jessie Sheehan is joined by Fany Gerson, Mexican dessert authority, cookbook author, and entrepreneur, to talk all things doughnuts for the fourth episode of She’s My Cherry Pie, Radio Cherry Bombe’s new baking miniseries. Fany’s become known for her creative and artisanal takes on the beloved American treats via her Brooklyn shop, Fan-Fan Doughnuts. (Fany is also the founder of La Newyorkina, which specializes in paletas.) She’s been making doughnuts since 2010 and has lots to share about frying, fillings, and flavors. If you’re curious about the doughnut-making process, don’t miss this episode.

If you’re inspired to get baking, try your hand at Fany’s special strawberry-jelly doughnut from her cookbook, My Sweet Mexico: Recipes for Authentic Pastries, Breads, Candies, Beverages, and Frozen Treats.
