Greek Yogurt Mini Donuts with Glaze Recipe

 Here's the perfect little treat - mini donuts covered in rainbow sprinkles!  I made these for my daughter's Valentine's Day class party and the kids LOVED them.  

I used the Babycakes Mini Donut Maker and the Sour Cream Donut Recipe. (I replaced the sour cream with Greek yogurt and added a little more milk and oil to get the right consistency.)

Donut Recipe

1 1/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour

1/3 cup organic white sugar

1 Tbsp baking powder

1/2 tsp sea salt

1/2 cup whole milk

1/2 cup canola oil

1/2 cup Greek yogurt

1 farm fresh egg

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

1. Combine dry ingredients in a mixing bowl. 

2. In a separate bowl, whisk together wet ingredients.

3. Pour wet ingredients into dry ingredients and mix until smooth. (If it seems too dry or too thick, add just a little milk and/or oil until it reaches a good consistency.  My dough was a bit thick and sticky.)

4. Wipe donut maker holes with some oil on a paper towel and then heat it up.

5.  Fill each donut hole with about 1 heaping Tbsp of dough.  If you use too much, it will ooze out the sides and your donuts will look more like a flying saucer with wings.  And don't worry about covering the middle - you can easily fix that with a knife after they have baked.

6. Bake about 4 minutes in donut maker.

7. Let cool completely - then on to the decorating!

I used this recipe for the icing...

Vanilla Glaze

1/4 cup of melted unsalted butter

1 1/3 cups of sifted organic powdered sugar

1 tsp pure vanilla extract

2 Tbsp HOT water (or more if needed for consistency)

1.  Combine melted butter with powdered sugar.  It will be clumpy.

2.  Stir in vanilla - try your best!

3.  Add HOT water and mix until blended smooth.  You can add additional HOT water, a little bit at a time, to make it thinner for dipping.

4.  Dip top of donut into glaze, then into the rainbow sprinkles.

5.  Let dry on wire rack.

6.  ENJOY!
