Instructions
Easy “Candied” Pecans:
- Over medium heat melt butter and brown sugar together until smooth & melted. Bring to a slow boil until it looks caramelized, 2-3 minutes. Stir in pecans and spread on wax paper and cool, set aside.
Donuts:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease 2 donut pans using cooking spray.
- In a small cup, mix together milk and vinegar, allow this to sit until it starts to curdle about 5 minutes.
- Melt butter in a small bowl and set aside to cool.
- In a medium mixing bowl add together flours, instant pudding, white sugar, brown sugar, baking soda, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Set aside.
- Whisk the honey into the curdle milk and beat until well combined, then add the egg. Whisk until combined.
- Mix together the wet with the dry ingredients until combined, make sure you don’t over mix, you want a fluffy donut not a dense one.
- If you don’t have a piping bag, cut the corner of a Ziploc bag, add batter and pipe the dough evenly into the prepared pans, about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 7 minutes, remove from oven and cool for 1 minute before you turn them over on to a cooling rack. Let the donuts cool on rack.
Frosting:
- Over medium heat add the brown sugar and butter into a small sauce pan, and stir until it is completely melted and well combined. Reduce the heat to low and simmer. Add the cream and honey. Gently boil for 5-6 minutes while constantly stirring.
- Turn off heat and stir in the vanilla and powdered sugar until smooth and there are no lumps. Allow frosting to cool for a minute. If the frosting becomes too thick stir in a tablespoon of milk.
- Dip the tops of the donuts into the warm icing and immediately sprinkled with “candied” pecans.
- Allow frosting to cool then serve.
