Tia's tip
​
When you remove from the oven check they are cooked by pressing the top of each doughnut, they should bounce back
What do we do?
-
Turn the oven onto 175C/ 350F
-
Spray the doughnut or cupcake pan with oil and set to one side. If you don’t have oil spray put a little oil on a piece of kitchen roll and rub round the cake/ doughnut pan
-
Put the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder and salt into one of the mixing bowls
-
Measure out the milk into the second mixing bowl add the melted butter, eggs and vanilla extract. Whisk well to combine.
-
Add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and whisk until it is all mixed together. Don’t mix it too much.
-
Spoon the mixture into the doughnut pan or cupcake tin. Alternatively, you can pop it in a piping bag to help you. You want to fill them up to ¾ full.
-
Put the doughnuts in the oven and cook for 8-10 minutes
-
While the doughnuts are cooking put the icing sugar, pinch of salt and vanilla extract into a mixing bowl whisk in a little of the milk at a time until it is a thick but runny icing.
-
At this stage you can separate and colour the icing if you would like.
-
When the doughnuts are still warm, dip them into the icing and add sprinkles if using.
Eat and enjoy!
