THEY were the ‘dunking doughnuts’ that got slam-dunked by My Kitchen Rules judges Manu Feildel and Pete Evans.

But Emilie Biggar’s big twist on the mix of muffins and doughnuts - dubbed ‘monuts’ by Adelaide contestant Celine - got us salivating over the fantasy fusion foods we’d love to see served on Seven’s top-rating reality show.

Despite impressing overall with their rustic menu of family favourites - scoring 63/110 for a menu of fish tortillas, pork belly with horseradish mash and those doughnuts - Biggar especially has heartbroken her hybrid dessert to meet to the judges taste.

The 24-year-old broke down in tears after Feildel described the baked goods as “a little dry...a little bit doughy...(and) a little bit bready” while Evans said they were a disappointing departure from tradition.

Inspired by her great grandmother, who got Biggar hooked on sweet treats by “feeding me sugar by the spoon,” the Toowoomba mum of one cried: “I just wanted to make (her) proud.”

She’s still alive, she’s 92 and she’s a great grandmother to my son. Dessert is like her thing...I think I was trying to be different and I feel like I failed.”

While they weren’t the great point scorers she wanted them to be, they turned our tastebuds on.

Vote for your favourite dish from our list of fantasy food fusions and...wait for it...MKR chef Colin Fassnidge has agreed to whip up the winning one!
