Once I found this Wilton pan, I just had to make mini donuts!
These are so light and airy and with sugary sweet toppings, it will be a hit with everyone, even if they dont like regular donuts!
This recipe makes 48 mini donuts:
ps.....these are great cupcake toppers!
Cake donuts:
1 1/4 cup all purpose flour, sifted
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 1/2 T butter, melted
Preheat the oven to 425F. Spray mini donut pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, sift together flour, sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt. Add buttermilk, egg and butter and stir until just combined. Fill each doughnut cup approx. 1/2 full.
Bake 4-6 minutes or until the top of the doughnut srpigs back when touched. Remove and cool before decorating.
Vanilla Glaze:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 T milk (add more if needed)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Stir together until completely dissolved. Use immediately and add other toppings before glaze sets.
Chocolate Glaze:
Melt 1/4 cup of semi sweet chocolate chips in the microwave at 30 second intervals until chocolate is melted, Use immediately and add other toppings before chocolate cools.
