Instructions

FOR THE DONUTS

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a donut tin with nonstick spray. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the flour, sugar, and baking powder together.1½ cups all-purpose flour,¾ cup granulated sugar,2 teaspoons baking powder
• In another bowl, whisk the milk, vegetable oil, butter, egg, and vanilla together.½ cup whole milk,⅓ cup vegetable oil,3 tablespoons unsalted butter,1 large egg,1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• Pour the wet ingredients to the dry and mix just until combined.
• Gently fold the sprinkles into the batter.¼ cup rainbow sprinkles
• 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.
