The best donuts in Toronto take a Canadian staple to new heights. They're not just for cops, Homer Simpson or the office anymore, and with toppings way beyond sprinkles or chocolate dip, you can’t go wrong with a dozen from any of these spots.

Here are the best donuts in Toronto.

With locations in Parkdale and now the east end, the donuts at this place are king when it comes to flavours, like their famous Toast & Butter or specials like mango lassi. They’ve even done collabs making donut fried chicken sandwiches.
9 - Emma's Country Kitchen

If you can’t get a seat at this St. Clair brunch spot, console yourself with a rhubarb, lemon and gingersnap or filled French lemon cream donuts (and maybe an apple cheddar fritter, too).
