Ingredients

Strawberry Donuts
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup milk whole
  • 4 tablespoons butter melted
  • 3/4 cup Strawberry Compote
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Strawberry Compote
  • 1 cup strawberry hulled and diced, fresh
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
White Chocolate Ganache
  • 1 1/4 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon corn syrup

Instructions

Strawberry Compote
    Cup of Yum
  1. In a saucepan, over medium heat, add diced strawberries and sugar. Stir occasionally.
  2. After ten minutes I start to help the berries along by mashing them with my spoon.
  3. The compote will have some small pieces in it, if you don’t want them in the finish product you can strain them out. The entire process took me about 18 minutes.
  4. After the compote has come to the perfect consistency, take it off the stove and let it cool for about 5 minutes.
Donuts
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Spray the donut pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a bowl, add the egg and milk. Whisk until blended.
  3. Add the butter, strawberry compote, and vanilla. Whisk until everything is combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Once all the dry ingredients are combined, add a small amount into the wet mixture and whisk.
  6. Keep adding small amounts and whisking until all the dry mixture is incorporated into the batter.
  7. Scoop the batter into a disposable piping bag and cut a small hole into the tip.
  8. Cover the bottom of the pan with the batter. Only fill the donut pans half way. Be sure to not overfill the pans. I like to make a second layer towards the outside of the pan so the donut hole doesn’t get covered up. If it does, feel free to cut the hole out with the scissors.
  9. Place into the oven for 8 minutes or until they’re done. The bottoms will be golden brown and the tops will be a pale pink.
  10. Let cool in the pan for at least 5 minutes. Place the donuts onto the cooling rack to cool.
Ganache
  1. In a microwave safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips, corn syrup, and heavy cream.
  2. Place into the microwave for 45 seconds.
  3. Take the bowl out and whisk until everything is combined.
  4. Let cool for 5-10 minutes until the ganache has thickened.
  5. Dip the cooled donuts into the ganache and place them back onto the cooling rack.
  6. Add sprinkles and let dry.
