Bánh cam and bánh vòng are traditional donut-like fritters originating from Vietnam. Bánh cam is traditionally sold together with bánh vòng, and the difference lies in the fact that bánh cam is round, while bánh vòng is ring-shaped, similar to a thin donut with a hole in the middle (vòng means ring).
Both types of donuts have a caramel glaze on top, but bánh vòng doesn’t contain the mung bean filling as bánh cam does. If properly prepared, the donuts should be crispy on the outside, and soft, chewy, and dense on the inside.
