Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Whole milk
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 Eggs (large)
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Milk (for glaze)
• 2 tablespoons Sprinkles (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini doughnut pan or mini muffin pan with cooking spray or butter.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, mix the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth and fully incorporated.

Step 4

Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula or whisk until there are no lumps. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 5

Transfer the batter to a piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off. Carefully pipe the batter into the prepared mini doughnut or muffin pan, filling each cavity about 2/3 full.

Step 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 7

Allow the mini cupcake doughnuts to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 8

While the doughnuts are cooling, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons of milk in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and drizzle-able. Add more milk if necessary to achieve the desired consistency.

Step 9

Dip the top of each cooled doughnut into the glaze, allowing any excess to drip off back into the bowl. If desired, sprinkle with colorful sprinkles while the glaze is still wet.

Step 10

Let the glaze set for about 10-15 minutes before serving. Best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
