As Good as Gold

My love for donuts runs deep. A quick visit to the Instagram hashtag #TheBakerMamaDoesDonuts will make that pretty clear. And these Sugar Coated Baked Donuts Baked are a delicious addition to my donut arsenal. Baked, not fried, they’re crisp on the outside, soft and cake-like on the inside, and covered all over with melt-in-your-mouth sugar. In short, they’re the perfect homemade donuts. I’ve also made mini versions of these with Domino Golden Sugar, which I discovered recently and love baking with. It tastes like a cross between granulated sugar and brown sugar, with a subtle hint of molasses that makes these donuts so incredibly delicious. As you can see here, granulated sugar works great, too!

The best part about this recipe is that you probably already have the ingredients for these simple homemade donuts in your fridge and pantry. Butter, milk, flour, sugar, an egg, vanilla extract and some baking soda. See? So simple. Just remember, donut pans are essential to getting the right density and texture of a baked donut. The rest is easy peasy.

How to Make Sugar Coated Baked Donuts

First, preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 2 (6-cavity) donut pans with non-stick cooking spray. Then, in a large bowl, melt the butter and let cool slightly. After whisking in the sugar then the milk, eggs and vanilla, stir in the flour and baking soda.

Spoon the batter into a piping bag and pipe into donut cavities, filling each one about 2/3-full.

Bake the donuts for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the donuts cool in the pan for 5 minutes.

When cooled, remove 6 of the donuts and place them in a plastic baggie. Add 1 tablespoon sugar, seal the bag and toss to coat. Repeat with remaining 6 donuts and 1 tablespoon sugar. Serve and enjoy!
