Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

cooking spray
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 tablespoons vegetable shortening, melted and cooled slightly
1 cup sifted powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Adjust an oven rack to upper-middle position. Spray a donut pan with cooking spray.
  • Sift flour, sugar, cornstarch, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt together in a large mixing bowl.
  • Whisk buttermilk, eggs, baking soda, and vanilla extract together in a smaller bowl.
  • Pour melted and cooled shortening into flour mixture and stir until absorbed. Add buttermilk mixture and mix well. Let batter rest for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Pour a scant tablespoon of batter into the well of each donut cup in the prepared pan. Use the back of a spoon to distribute batter evenly across the bottom of each; you won't use up all of the batter in this batch.
  • Bake in the preheated oven on the upper-middle rack until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven; let cool in the pan for 2 to 3 minutes before removing onto a wire rack.
  • Place powdered sugar into a small paper bag. Toss warm doughnuts in powdered sugar to coat.
  • Spray the donut pan with cooking spray again. Spoon batter in tablespoonfuls into the hot pan for the next batch.
  • Bake donuts in the preheated oven on the upper-middle rack until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes before removing from the pan and toss in powdered sugar.

CHOCOLATE BAKED BUTTERMILK DONUTS



Chocolate Baked Buttermilk Donuts image

This is a recipe adapted from the recipe that came on the back of the Nordicware dounut pan I bought at Target. I glaze them with my recipe Yummy Vanilla Glaze. Your donut yield will depend on how full you fill the donut cups in the pan. Somewhere between 1/2 and 2/3 is about right.

2 cups cake flour
1 cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup buttermilk
2 eggs
2 tablespoons melted butter

Cool 5 minutes in pan; invert onto cooling rack and cool completely. Glaze and decorate if desired.

Tips:

  • Use fresh buttermilk for the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the batter, as this will result in tough donuts.
  • Be sure to preheat the oven before baking the donuts.
  • Bake the donuts until they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the donuts to cool completely before glazing them.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips in the batter.
  • For a fun twist, try adding different flavored extracts to the batter, such as vanilla, almond, or orange.
  • If you don't have a donut pan, you can use a muffin pan instead.
  • These donuts are best enjoyed fresh, but they can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
