Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup buttermilk (or milk with 1/2 tsp vinegar)
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
- 2-3 tbsp milk (to thin icing)
- Halloween-themed sprinkles or edible decorations
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a mini donut pan.
- Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a medium bowl until well combined.
- Combine the buttermilk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla extract in another bowl until smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
- Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a zip-top plastic bag with a corner snipped off. Pipe the batter into the mini donut pan, filling each cavity about halfway.
- Bake for about 10 minutes, or until the donuts spring back when touched and are golden brown.
- Prepare the icing by mixing the powdered sugar with enough milk to reach your desired consistency.
- Decorate the cooled donuts by dipping the tops into the icing and adding Halloween-themed sprinkles.
Notes
Great for parties and customizable with various decorations. Allow donuts to cool completely before icing.
