  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 12 donuts

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • For the glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoons brewed coffee (additional)
  • Optional: chocolate chips, sprinkles, or cinnamon sugar for topping

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a donut pan or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the eggs, vanilla extract, melted butter, milk, and cooled brewed coffee. Mix well.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Pour the batter into a piping bag or zip-top bag with the tip cut off, then fill each donut cavity about ¾ full.
  6. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the donuts comes out clean.

Making the Coffee Glaze

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and brewed coffee until smooth.
  2. Adjust the consistency by adding more coffee or powdered sugar as needed.
  3. Once the donuts are cooled, dip the tops into the glaze and let set. Add toppings like sprinkles or cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.

Notes

  • Ensure the coffee is cooled before adding to the batter to prevent cooking the eggs.
  • Use a piping bag for cleaner donut shaping.
  • Customize toppings with chocolate chips, sprinkles, or cinnamon sugar for extra flavor.
