Chapssal doughnuts (ko|찹쌀도넛) are Korean doughnuts made with chapssal flour (glutinous rice flour).[1] [2] The mildly sweet doughnuts are often filled with sweetened red bean paste and coated with the mixture of sugar and cinnamon powder.
The Korean compound chapssal-doneot (Korean: 찹쌀도넛) literally means "glutinous rice doughnut", as chapssal (Korean: 찹쌀) refers to "glutinous rice" and doneot (Korean: 도넛) is a loanword from the English word "doughnut".
Glutinous rice flour dough creates the crunchy outside texture and chewy inside texture. Beside food stalls in traditional markets, the doughnuts are also sold through franchise bakeries such as Dunkin' Donuts Korea and Paris Baguette.[3] [4]
