Don’t you just love donuts but hate how they make you feel? Or don’t you just hate how you can’t find an easy recipe that’s friendly with your diet and doesn’t require the long and messy process of frying? Well donut worry! (Sorry, I had to) This donut recipe is super easy, it takes less than 30 minutes to make, is super delicious and it’s also versatile! And did I mention that they’re mini? (So cute!)
These donuts are not only cute but, they’re delicious! Even though they aren’t fried (which saves so much time and cleanup!) these donuts are incredibly fluffy and have so much flavor! In my tips and tricks section, you’ll see that I give different flavor combinations from the classic old fashioned to a fruity twist, you’ll want to make them all! I definitely recommend that you make a double batch and separate the batter so that you can try all of the flavors!
I have a new recipe coming up very soon that goes perfect with this one…Nutella! I love pairing it with the vanilla version of this recipe, you get the fluffy texture from the doughnut and the rich creaminess from the Nutella, it tastes amazing together, you have to try it! You can find the recipe here.
Tips & Tricks:
- You can make it in a regular-sized donut pan but, you’ll end up with less
- Split the batter in half and add a different flavor in each for variety!
- Add in coco powder for chocolate donuts, cinnamon and nutmeg for old-fashioned, or your favorite freeze-dried fruit blended into a powder for a fruity twist!
- If you make too many, donuts can be frozen (for up to 3 months), then later defrosted and enjoyed!
