Baked Donuts Recipe

all-purpose flour

sugar

salt

baking powder

baking soda

nutmeg

vegetable oil

buttermilk (room temperature)

egg (room temperature)

unsalted butter (melted)

vanilla extract

water

white food coloring (I use Americolor gel)

food coloring (I use Americolor electric pink and

Preheat your oven to 450ºF (232ºC) and weigh out all of your ingredients, bringing the buttermilk and egg to room temperature.

Place the sugar and melted butter in a large bowl and combine smooth with a whisk.

Add the egg, oil and vanilla and whisk until combined.

In a separate medium bowl, add the flour, baking powder, baking soda, nutmeg and salt. Mix to gently combine.

Add half the dry mixture into the wet mixture, whisk gently until some of the flour remains, then add all the buttermilk, mix a little, and add the rest of the flour. Mix until just combined, do not over mix. The batter will be very wet and there will be a few lumps.

Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a plastic bag with a corner cut off. (You can also just use a spoon and smooth out the tops.)

Grease the donut tray with cake goop or your favorite pan release, and fill each cavity 1/2 to 3/4 of the way full of batter.

Bake at 450ºF (232ºC) for 7-9 minutes. When the tops are firm and bounce back when you touch them, they&#039;re done.

Cool the donuts in the pan for 5 minutes, then flip them out onto a wire rack to cool completely. Make sure to not glaze while warm.

The Donuts

Sift your powdered sugar, this will prevent your glaze from having lumps.

In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and water (or milk) until desired consistency. Add 1/4 tsp more water at a time until it&#039;s as thin as you like. If it becomes too thin, add more powdered sugar. If your glaze has lumps, you can use a hand mixer to smooth it out.

If you want a more opaque glaze, add a few drops of white food coloring to the glaze and divide into bowls. Add your favorite colors and stir.

Place the wire rack of donuts on top of a sheet pan to catch extra glaze drips. Grasp each donut by the sides and dunk into the glaze, letting it drain off for a few seconds. Then flip over and place the donut back onto the wire rack. Top with sprinkles immediately, as the glaze firms up quickly.

Place into a plastic or paper bag and store at room temperature for up to 3 days, they will continue to soften over time.

Classic Baked Donut Recipe

Making donuts and munchkins from scratch can seem like an intimidating endeavor, but once you go homemade, it’s really hard to go back to store-bought. After you make the dough and let it rise overnight, you’ll cut the donut and donut hole shapes and fry them in a heavy pan. While they rest, whisk together the glaze and either drizzle over the donuts or dunk them in it. Add sprinkles if you want and enjoy your warm, fresh-baked treats — this recipe makes a lot of them!

In a medium bowl, add the milk, sugar, and yeast, stirring to combine.

In a separate medium bowl, add the butter, eggs, and vanilla extract, stirring to combine.

Add the milk mixture to the egg mixture and whisk to combine. Transfer to a large bowl and add the flour in thirds, stirring between each addition.

Dump the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes, until smooth. Gently poke the dough with a finger--the dough should bounce back up from the indentation.

Place the dough in a large bowl, and lightly coat the dough with oil. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap.

Let the dough rise in a warm place for an hour, or until doubled in size.

Take the dough out and knead on a floured surface for 5 minutes until smooth. Place the dough in an oiled bowl and repeat with rise overnight in refrigerator.

Roll out the dough on a floured surface until ¼ inch (6 mm) thick.

Cut out the doughnuts and donut holes with a cookie cutter and piping tip.

Melt enough shortening over medium heat to come up just 2 inches (5 cm) up on the side of a heavy frying pan. Heat the shortening to 375°F (190°C)

Fry the donuts and donut holes for 45 seconds on each side, or until golden brown.

In a bowl, combine the powdered sugar, dry milk powder, vanilla extract and hot water until smooth.

Strain the glaze through a fine-mesh sieve to remove any lumps.

Dunk the donuts in the glaze or drizzle the glaze on top.
