Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 3/4 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Food coloring (red, blue, white, metallic silver)
- Edible glitter or shimmer for decoration
- Optional: LED edible lights for authentic arc reactor glow
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a donut pan or silicone mold.
- Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, combine milk, eggs, melted butter, and vanilla. Mix thoroughly.
- Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients, stirring gently to combine.
- Divide the batter into three bowls; color one with red, one with blue, and keep the third plain.
- Spoon the blue batter into the donut molds’ centers for the “heart,” then layer red and white around it to mimic the arc reactor structure.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let donuts cool completely. Use metallic edible paint for a sleek shine, if desired.
- Decorate with edible glitter and attach LED edible lights for a dazzling effect.
Notes
- Ensure no batter overflows for perfect donuts.
- You can replace food coloring with natural alternatives for a healthier option.
- Use high-quality edible shimmer for a more metallic, high-tech look.
- For extra authenticity, incorporate LED edible lights in the center of the donuts.
