Equipment

  • 6 cavity donut pan

Ingredients
  

Strawberry Donuts

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour unbleached
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1/2 cup buttermilk room temperature
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek Yogurt room temperature
  • 2 Tbsp unsalted butter melted and cooled
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract pure
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries finely chopped

Vanilla Glaze

  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp milk

Instructions
 

Strawberry Donuts

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Generously coat donut pan with nonstick baking spray then set aside.
  • Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and sugar together in a large bowl.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk egg, buttermilk, yogurt, melted butter and vanilla until combined.
  • Carefully add wet ingredients to dry, stirring with a wooden spoon until just combined. Take care to avoid overmixing.
  • Gently fold in strawberries until evenly distributed.
  • Pipe batter into donut pan, filling cavities 3/4 of the way.
  • Bake for 10 to 11 minutes or until tops spring back when pressed by a fingertip.
  • Cool donuts in pan for 3 minutes then remove to a wire rack to cool completely before adding vanilla glaze.
  • Clean donut pan, coat with nonstick spray then repeat the baking process with the remaining batter.

Vanilla Glaze

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth and lump free. Note: glaze will be very thick but pearly white. For a thinner, more transparent glaze add an additional tablespoon of milk.
  • Dip donut tops into glaze then allow glaze to set before serving.
  • Donuts taste best the day they are made but can be covered and stored at room temperature up to 2 days.
