This original recipe for buttermilk donuts was contributed by Sister
Naomie Young Schettler, a granddaughter of Brigham Young. It was first
made by Emily Partridge Young, Sister Schettler’s grandmother. A
favorite with President Young, the donuts became so popular that they
eventually were sold at the Zion’s Cooperative Mercantile Institution
department store in Salt Lake City.
