a hole's way of selling you the dough around it for three dollars.
means A small ring (or filled lump) of sweetened dough, fried and often glazed or sugared, eaten as a sweet snack.
from A plain compound of "dough" + "nut," first recorded in early 19th-century America — the "nut" originally meant a small rounded blob of fried dough, not yet the famous ring. The hole came later, by tradition credited to a 19th-century New England sea captain who supposedly punched out the soggy centers, though that tale is folk legend more than documented fact. The clipped spelling "donut" is a much later American shortcut.
