Baked Vanilla Cake Donuts with Chocolate Glaze
Description
This recipe makes baked cake donuts that are tender and vanilla-flavored, using basic baking ingredients like flour, sugar, baking powder, egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla extract. After baking in a lightly greased mini-donut pan at 350°F for about 10 minutes, the donuts are dipped into a chocolate glaze made from powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and water. The glaze coats the donut tops and is immediately covered with sprinkles, which add a crunchy texture and colorful appearance.
The baking method produces donuts with a soft crumb and light texture different from fried versions, while the chocolate glaze adds a smooth and slightly rich finish. These donuts can be served at breakfast or as a sweet snack and are visually appealing thanks to the sprinkles.
