Baked Vanilla Donuts

Sunday, March 2, 2014
I just love my new donut pan and these Baked Vanilla Sour Cream Donuts are ready in no time they're so easy to make!


If you haven't tried baked donuts, they are so easy, light, and actually fun even if you hate baking!


Today I made two different flavored donuts so you have two recipes to love.


The first simple donut is baked with a vanilla spice with a fall flavor hint of cinnamon and a little nutmeg in the batter.


Our other featured donut is baked with sour cream and vanilla.


Both are delicious dipped in a melted white chocolate glaze on top.


Both recipes are very basic flavors easy to make and so versatile.


You can decorate these baked donuts any way you like.


You could even tint the frosting and make them festive for any event or to your party theme with matching sprinkles.

Easy Baked Donuts




These recipes are both super easy but using a donut pan is a must-have.


Do read through our tips, suggestions, and ingredients before you get started to make sure your baking journey is flawless.


Baking donuts is so much easier than standing over a hot stove frying them and so much healthier do without all that oil saturation.


They don't even take long to whip up and at the most 10 to 12 minutes to bake!


My baked-style donuts are perfect for parties, picnics, snacking, and a great dessert any time of the year!




Suggestions

  • coordinated sprinkles to a party theme
  • tint the frosting or the batter
  • freeze them unfrosted for a quick dessert for unexpected company
  • great for a picnic just rolled in sugar






Quick Donut Tips


  • Do not overmix the batters on either one, just fold in the dry ingredients
  • Always preheat the over
  • Put the wet ingredients and dry in separate bowls
  • Use a ziplock bag filled with batter to fill your donut hole trays
  • The pans are a must to make baked donuts
  • This batter can be fried in a deep frying pan and using an ice cream scoop to release the batter into the oil
  • Do Not Overbake these!
  • Either donut can have tinted frostings or extracts added to the glazes for a change
  • Both donuts freeze well
  • You can also use these donuts for fruit and whipped cream dessert and leave them plain






Tools
