Powdered Sugar Donuts (Eggless and Baked)
Powdered Sugar Donuts are baked and not fried! These eggless donuts are light, fluffy, moist, perfectly spiced, and covered with icing sugar.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (120g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- A pinch of ground nutmeg
- ⅓ cup (65g) granulated sugar
- ½ cup (120g) yogurt
- ¼ cup (60ml) milk
- 2 tablespoon (28g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup icing sugar or as needed
Instructions
Making The Batter
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease the donut pan with non-stick spray or with melted butter. Set aside.
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, and granulated sugar together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- In another bowl, take yogurt, milk, butter, and vanilla. Whisk well to combine.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Baking The Donuts
- Fill the batter into a large piping bag; there is no need for the tip. Cut the end of the piping bag and pipe the batter into each donut cup evenly, up to ¾ way full.
- Do not overfill, as these donuts will rise well.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can also use a Ziploc bag. Fill the Ziploc bag with the batter, cut the corner, and fill the donut pan.
- Bake the donuts in the preheated oven for 10 minutes or until the edges are lightly brown. Do not overbake.
- Remove the donuts from the oven and let them cool down in the pan for 2 minutes.
- Then transfer the donuts onto a wire rack and let them cool completely.
Coating The Donuts With Powdered Sugar
- Once donuts are cooled, place the powdered sugar in a bowl. Dip each donut into the powdered sugar and serve.
Serving and Storing Suggestions
- Powdered Sugar Donuts are best eaten the same day. However, they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for two days.
- It is best to serve donuts right away, as powdered sugar will disappear if they are kept for longer.
- Alternatively, if you are not eating donuts immediately, coat them with powdered sugar right before serving.
Notes
- Spices: You can skip adding ground nutmeg if you prefer not to use it. Also, add more spice of your choice if you want.
- Piping Bag: Using a large piping bag is an easier way to fill the batter into the donut pan. However, instead of using a piping bag, you can also use a Ziplock bag. Fill it with the batter, cut a corner, and fill the donut pan.
- Filling the Pan: Do not overfill the donut pan; fill it only up to ¾ way full, as donuts will rise well.
- Baking: These donuts are quick to bake, taking only 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them after 8 minutes of baking and avoid overbaking the donuts.
- Coating: Coat the donuts with powdered sugar just before serving, as it will disappear if kept for longer.
