Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cinnamon (optional)
  • ½ cup milk (or a dairy-free alternative)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp melted butter (or vegetable oil)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tbsp milk (for icing)
  • Food coloring (orange, black, green)
  • Sprinkles (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a donut pan with cooking spray or butter.
  2. Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl.
  3. Combine the milk, egg, and melted butter in a separate bowl.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and stir gently until just combined.
  5. Fill each donut mold about halfway with the batter.
  6. Bake for 8-10 minutes until the donuts spring back when touched.
  7. Cool the donuts for a few minutes then transfer to a wire rack.
  8. Prepare the icing by whisking powdered sugar with milk to a drizzle consistency; add food coloring as desired.
  9. Decorate the cooled donuts with icing and sprinkles.

Notes

Allow the donuts to cool completely before decorating to prevent melting the icing. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
