At Pan Bagels, our Bar Donut is scratch-made every morning at our Rancho Cordova bakery. We use the same yeast-leavened dough that goes into our raised rings, proofed slowly for a light, open crumb, then shape it into a thick rectangle before frying. The bar format means more surface area, which means more glaze contact, more caramelized edges, and a slightly different texture than a ring: a little more pull on the inside, a little more crunch on the corners.
The glaze goes on warm and sets clean, thin enough to let the dough breathe, sweet enough to make every bite feel complete. No filling, no cream, no sprinkles. Just the bar in its purest form.
It’s the one that disappears quietly from the box before anyone realizes it’s gone. At $2.99, it’s an honest, satisfying grab on its own or alongside a hot latte or drip coffee.
Find it fresh daily at Pan Bagels, 4022 Sunrise Blvd Suite 110, Rancho Cordova, CA. Order ahead on DoorDash or stop in, we open early and bake in small batches.
