Happy Wednesday!
Here’s a little tip. If you want to get back at someone you don’t like at the moment, go to a health insurance site and enter in their phone number to the site and press the enter button when looking for quotes. They’ll get spammed up to wazoo in phone calls! I accidentally did that, and now I’m getting calls from all over the US. They started on Friday and now, I probably have up to 80 phone calls from missed insurance companies. I’m not kidding you! Don’t ever do that for yourself if you’re ever shopping around for health insurance. Anyways…. that’s a little life lesson.
I got home today from work and decided that I must make some doughnuts. Baked doughnuts that is. If I made a whole batch of fried doughnuts I’d be in trouble. It took two tries to get this recipe right. The first time I had added way to much baking soda so the doughnuts looked liked muffins. The second batch turned out pretty good, they weren’t too sweet. Into the pool of sugar glaze they were dipped and then topped with some sprinkles. Aren’t sprinkles purty?!
The batter is kind of thick and if it’s a little too thick when you make it, just add some more milk. Not too much milk, I was measuring until the batter became a certain consistency that I liked.
I’ve been going kind of picture crazy with this new lens of mine. I’m just LOVING it!

Love the pictures! I had to check out your post about the new lens when you mentioned it – it’s definitely getting the job done! Looking forward to trying these donuts out, too – my donut pan doesn’t get near the action that it should.
Thank you so much! If you own a Nikon camera, I highly suggest that lens. Wish I would have got it sooner. 🙂
These look awesome!! They’d be perfect for a brunch or birthday brinner party! I will have to make these soon!
Love the photos! These donuts look absolutely fabulous – such a fun way to brighten the week!
Sprinkles make every day a happy day!! At least that’s what my teenage daughter tells me. And when they are combined with donuts, well, the day is even happier yet!
What gorgeous doughnuts! I have only attempted to make doughnuts twice in my life and both were fried. They were great but just figured that I shouldn’t be making them all the time. I love that these are baked instead!
These are super fun and stunning!
Did I miss something in the instructions? It says to combine everything, but says nothing about the glaze you used. Is this the doughnut batter only (glaze not included)? My 1st thought is to leave out the sugar & milk to make the glaze but I don’t want to ruin the batter. Please advise.
