Mini Donuts

100 Bite-Sized Donut Recipes To Sweeten Your “Hole” Day

By

Jessica Segarra

from The Novice Chef Blog

 

 The recipes in this cookbook use three different methods of cooking mini donuts:  the donut pan, the mini-donut machine, and the frying method.

 

  • The donut pan produces a mini donut with a light, airy, cupcake-like texture.
  • The mini-donut machine creates a more dense cakelike donut with a perfectly rounded top.
  • The frying method, either in a deep fryer or deep pan with hot oil, creates a donut very similar to those you most often find in a donut shop.

 

Don’t these donuts look delish?

Well, you know I’m a sucker for anything “pumpkin” flavored!  So I had to give the Pumpkin Spice with Cinnamon-Maple Glaze Mini Donuts (on page 112) a try!

 I used a couple of donut pans for this recipe.

It’s easy to fill the donut pans if you use a pastry bag with no tip.

The donuts baked up nicely in 7-9 minutes!

  2. 2

    I’ve never had a baked one, would love to do this with my granddaughters!

    I prefer baked donuts.
    I’d love to try the Bugs Bunny Carrot Cake Mini Donut. ;)

  11. 11

    When I make them at home I prefer baked. But love the donuts at the donut shops for a once in a while treat…which are fried.

  12. 12

    My family loves to buy donuts from the bakery but need to start eating lighter. Baking the donuts would be a step towards that area. It seems like any of the recipes would be delicious.

  13. 13

    I have made both and my family likes both baked and fried. I like to do the baked though for something fast so I do not have to wait for the rising of the yeast!

  14. 14

    Love them both!

    Jen Julien says:

    I did make baked donuts one time. They tasted like a muffin. Could of been the recipe I used. The lemon sounds good.

    Charlotte Moore says:

    Oops!!! Forgot to say I really like fried, but maybe a good recipe could change my mind.

  18. 18

    I’m going with… baked.

    I am on a search for a great collection of baked donuts. My granddaughters love them. The youngest asked but where are the donut holes?

  27. 27

    I preferred fried….some things just taste better fried :)

  28. 28
    Diane Riedel says:

    I like both! Fried of course has that wonderful touch of grease in your mouth that feels so indulgent as you eat it. Baked has a more cake like texture that goes so well with coffee. I’ve never made either so it would be fun to make the baked variety! :)

  29. 29

    Fried is what I am used to. Never tried the baked. Would love to win. Thanks.

    I prefer fried but I would bake them.

  34. 34

    I have never had baked donuts before so I couldn’t totally say which I prefer, however, I don’t eat many donuts due to the fact that they are fried so baked would be a good alternative. I love donuts!

  35. 35

    Hmmmm, I am not sure I guess. I love the Krispy Kreme yeasty glazed doughnuts, but I also love the cake doughnuts at places like Dunkin Donuts. I guess I just love doughnuts!
