Back in the 1940s, two brothers, Al and Bob Pelton, started working at a potato-flour donut shop called Spudnuts. After aiming to find a lighter, less greasy way to make delicious donuts, a new recipe was born with over 200 franchised locations.

Today, Turner’s Donuts retains much of the same charm and nostalgia as the 1960s, thanks to new owners Thang and Yee Chau, who have owned Turner's since 1998.

The recipes are still time-tested, with favorites like apple fritters, creme-filled Long Johns, sugar-coated, and sweet glazed.
