  • Divide the batter between the wells of the donut pan, filling each one with about ⅓ cup of batter. For ease, transfer the batter to a Ziplock bag, cut the corner off, and pipe the batter into each donut well. (If your donut pan has 6 wells, bake the donuts in batches.)

  • Bake for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a donut comes out clean.
  • Transfer the donuts to a wire rack and allow them to cool completely before glazing.

For the Glaze

  • While the donuts cool, make the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla together until smooth.
    1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • Dip the donuts into the glaze and garnish with sprinkles.

Notes

  • If you don't have a donut tin, use a muffin tin instead. Line a 12-count muffin tin with paper liners (or spray with nonstick spray) and fill with donut batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Storage: Store donuts in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Freeze unglazed donuts in an airtight container for up to 3 months. When ready to serve, let the donuts come to room temperature and glaze.
