Instructions
- To make the donuts, preheat oven to 350 F. Spray two (6-count) doughnut pans with a flour-based baking spray, like Baker's Joy.
- In a small bowl, stir water and yeast together. Let the yeast sit for 5-10 minutes, or until foamy.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients.
- Add the eggs, buttermilk, butter, vanilla, and yeast mixture; stir until combined.
- Gently stir in sprinkles until just incorporated. Do not over-stir as sprinkles can bleed.
- Spoon batter (about 1/4-cup per donut) into prepared pans, smoothing as needed.
- Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until set and light golden brown.
- Let the donuts cool in the pan for about 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the glaze.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla to form a thick but viscous glaze.
- Remove donuts to wire rack, and drizzle warm donuts with glaze.
- Add sprinkles while glaze is still warm. Once the glaze sets up, the sprinkles won't stick.
- Donuts are best enjoyed warm.
Notes
- Yeast: You can use an equal amount of instant yeast. If you're using instant yeast, there's no need to proof it.
- Salt: Or a pinch of table salt.
- Butter: I use salted butter.
- Vanilla extract: If you'd like the icing to be whiter, use clear vanilla extract. You could also use cake batter flavoring for part of the vanilla.
