Doughnuts

  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 0.5 cup milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon white vinegar

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350˚F. Grease and flour a doughnut pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.
  • In a small saucepan, combine milk, white vinegar, vanilla extract, egg, and softened butter.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until butter melts and mixture is combined, about one minute. Remove from heat.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  • Spoon the doughnut batter into the prepared doughnut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
  • Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Remove from oven and immediately invert the pan onto a wire rack to release the doughnuts.
  • While the doughnuts are cooling, prepare the glaze.

Glaze Preparation

  • In a small saucepan, combine milk, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until smooth and slightly thickened.
  • Once the doughnuts are cool enough to handle, dip each one into the glaze, letting excess drip off. Place on the wire rack.
  • Let the glaze set for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

These baked doughnuts are a healthier alternative to fried doughnuts, offering a delicious cinnamon flavor with a sweet vanilla glaze.
