Equipment

  • 1 Donut Pan

Ingredients

Donuts

  • 1/2 cup Granulated White Sugar
  • 2 Tbs. Unsalted Butter, melted
  • 3/4 Cup Whole Milk
  • 2 large Eggs, room temperature
  • 2 tsps. Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp. Baking Powder
  • 1/2 tsp. Fine Sea Salt

Glaze

  • 1 1/2 cups Confectioners' Sugar
  • 3 Tbs Whole Milk
  • 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract or other flavoring

Instructions

Donuts

  • Preheat oven to 350° and spray 2 donut pans with non-stick spray.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together sugar, butter and milk. Add eggs and combine well. Whisk in vanilla.
  • In another bowl whisk together flour, baking powder and salt.
    Alternating with milk mixture, stir flour mixture into sugar/butter mixture. Start and finish with dry ingredients. Do not over work.
  • Evenly distribute batter between donut pan openings. I like to use a pastry bag and pipe it in.
    Bake at 10-15 minutes, until golden brown and toothpick comes out with just a few moist crumbs. They will be deceiving, don't over bake
    Cool in pan for 10 minutes then turn out and cool completely on rack.

Glaze

  • In a small bowl, milk into Confectioners' sugar to desired consistency. Add in your flavoring.
    Dip donuts in glaze and twist as you come up. Sprinkle with dusting sugar.
