A sour cream doughnut is a type of doughnut that incorporates sour cream into its batter. [1] This type of doughnut is often dipped in a vanilla flavored glaze after frying and usually has no filling.

[4] As a substitute for the traditional vanilla glaze topping, powdered sugar or a ground cinnamon and sugar mixture can also be used. [1]
