- Preheat the oven to 200c
- Coat the donut mould (if using) with a little oil
- Place the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl and stir together, so all ingredients are combined
- In a measuring jug, add the wet ingredients and whisk lightly to combine
- Pour the contents of the jug into the bowl and mix together using a spatula, taking care not to over mix
- Fill 2/3 of each mould with the mixture
- Place in the preheated oven for 8 minutes
- Once lightly golden and springy to the touch, remove from the oven to cook. Keep the donuts in their moulds to cook for 5 minutes before removing
- Place on wire rack to cool completely
- Once cool, ice and decorate
To make icing:
- In a small mixing bowl, mix together the icing sugar with the milk and add a drop or two of food colouring.
- Dip the donuts in, top side up, making sure it’s evenly coated. Place the un-iced side down on a flat surface and sprinkle with freeze dried raspberries or chocolate sprinkles
A few flavour ideas:
Variations for donuts:
– cinnamon sugar (100g caster sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon)
– vanilla icing with sprinkles (as above in recipe but with vanilla extract added in to icing)
– pink icing with freeze dried raspberry sprinkles (as above in recipe)
– chocolate glazed donuts (150g icing sugar, 4 tablespoons cocoa powder, 2 tablespoons milk, dash of vanilla extract)
