Mini Donuts

August 20, 2010 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 26 Comments

Baked Mini Cake Donuts ~ Donut coupled with the word “baked”, um yeah, I’ll have another. Throw on some rainbow nonpareils and I’ll have a few more.

Now you can see why I was so excited to get this pan for my birthday, of course so were my boys.

These mini donuts are fun and easy to make. And since this was my first time making donuts I followed the recipe on the pan. I have to admit, the recipe didn’t impress me enough that I would follow it next time. But when I’m trying something for the first time, I generally like to stick to the recipe then doctor it up after I tried it once.

Having said that, you will most likely see a few more donut recipes from me, since I love this pan and love making them.

A few notes:

  • Follow the bake and cool instructions explicitly. I didn’t the first time around because they looked under baked—uh,wrong. I ended with darkened bottoms and uneven tops.
  • These are best eaten the day of, as they become hard by the next day.
  • Use a pastry bag fitted with a #12 tip to fill the pan. Pipe one layer all the way around. Do not overfill.

Baked Mini Cake Donuts

Makes 24 mini donuts.  Prepare pan with baking spray. Heat oven to 425 degrees F.

Ingredients:

  • 1¼ cups cake flour, sifted
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1¼ tsp. baking powder
  • 1/8 tsp. ground nutmeg
  • ¾ tsp. salt
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1½ tbsp. butter, melted

Instructions:

  1. 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 donut cup approximately one-half full.
  2. Bake 4–6 minutes or until the top of the donuts spring back when touched. Let cool in pan for 4–5 minutes before removing. Finish the donuts with glaze, sprinkles, or cinnamon sugar.

    Hi Kathy,

    Here is the link for the mini donut pan from Sur la Table. It’s a Wilton pan, so you maybe be able to find it at Michaels if Sur la Table is not near you.

    I’m adding these pans to my Christmas list…along with the link to help Santa with his shopping! 😉

    Yum! Can’t wait to see the new donut recipes from your kitchen!

    Do they turn soft if you warm them in the microwave?

  14. Amanda says

    How cute. These would be dangerous to me. Much too easy to pop in my mouth and end up eating all of them!

    I love these dounuts – they look so pretty and sound so delicious! Do you think it would be possible to make these free form? Or perhaps I should just treat myself to one of these fab tins 🙂

    Oh man this looks delicious! Your pictures are gorgeous! Everything here looks so yummy!
    I’ve recently launched my own blog, I’d love for you to check it out and tell me what you think 🙂 Thanks!

    I made these mini donuts this morning. I followed your recipe to the letter and they came out beautifully. My only complaint is that my glaze doesn’t look nearly as beautiful as yours. My glaze was quite opaque and you could see the donut through the glaze. Can you let me know your glaze recipe – or the trick to making them look like yours. Thanks so much. And – I love your blog! (and keep buying all the pans you suggest)

  18. Naomi says

    September 13, 2010 at 3:36 pm

    My glaze is a dipped buttercream with some food coloring (used very sparingly for that pastel coloring). See my post here for the tutorial.

    Thanks for letting me know how your donuts turned out and thanks for reading. Happy baking!

  19. Anne says

    Thanks so much! I’m going to try the dipped buttercream next time.

    I together with my pals ended up looking at the nice secrets and techniques on your web page and then unexpectedly I got a horrible suspicion I had not thanked you for those techniques. The women were definitely consequently glad to read all of them and now have honestly been having fun with those things. Appreciation for simply being simply considerate and also for opting for this kind of good subject areas most people are really wanting to be informed on. Our own honest regret for not expressing appreciation to you earlier.

  22. Amanda says

    Can you make these in a muffin tin? If you only fill the bottom then let cool could you fill them with something? I only have one doughnut recipe and it’s for fried so I have never made baked.

Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we go simple! Who else feels this? #ad Back to school has been off to a rocky start with mixed up carpool rides to missed days from being sick. Thankfully soups like this come together quickly and easily. All you need are just a handful of fresh ingredients and some pantry staples like @enjoyrealcoco Coconut Milk and @kettleandfire Bone Broth. Both of which are @TetraPakUSA  packaged. This means I can stock my pantry and not worry about rotating the food month-to-month. The aseptic packaging solution helps unopened food have a shelf life of six months or more without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. I’m telling you it’s the little things, like food packaging—something you don’t even think about most days, that ends up being the thing that can have the biggest impact sometimes! #ProtectsWhatsGood

Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumna Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumnal picnics? To kickstart the season, the kids and I are headed to the park to enjoy an Apple Spiced Cake and warm sips of Apple Cider sweetened with our favorite pantry staple, @truvia. #ad

Truvia Sweet Complete Sweeteners are zero-calorie and made with plant-based stevia sweetness. Whether you are using the All-Purpose, Brown, or Confectioners Sweetener, they measure cup-for-cup like sugar in your favorite seasonal baked goods! 

Apple Spiced Cake 
Serves 12 

3 cups (14 oz.) self-rising flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
3 eggs
1 cup (6.25 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener 
1 cup (5.75 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Sweetener 
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup vegetable oil 
1 1/2 cups (5.5 oz.) peeled and shredded granny smith apple, about 2 large

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-12 cup bundt pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.

In a second large bowl, add the eggs, and beat until combined. Add both the Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose and Brown Sweeteners, whisk until fully incorporated. Pour in buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil, whisk until combined. 

Fold dry ingredients into the wet until smooth. Add the grated apples and fold until just combined. 

Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out free of wet batter. Transfer cake to a wire rack and let cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes. Unmold cake and let cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, dust with Truvia Sweet Complete Confectioners Sweetener. Enjoy outside with a seasonal beverage!
