18 lbs of donuts?
Can you also give us the method, too? Some recipes have you creaming the fat and sugar then adding the flour/eggs and other stuff. Were I to guess at this, I would think that the corn syrup, sugar and shortening are creamed together, you add the eggs, then the flour, soda, salt (and maybe the oats) are added and last the raisins. I still haven't figured out how you use the donuts
I would divide this in half, then in half again, which gives you this:
1.5# raisins
6 oz corn syrup
? donuts?
2# flour
3# brown sugar
1.5# shortening
2 oz baking soda (this seems very high to me)
1 oz salt
1.5# eggs
1.5# oats
This is still a large quantity, so you could also divide this in half too. I think the mixing method might be more of a culprit than you think.
