behold, the duffin

the exterior of this magical treat was crispy and crunchy with a thin, sugary layer from top to bottom, which leads me to believe it was momentarily fried. the inside was doughy, moist and had the texture of a fresh baked muffin with the flavor of an old-fashioned donut. any tips on how to recreate this masterpiece?
