I loved the mini donut muffins I made previously. So I figured, why can’t I make them into mini donuts? I made another batch of these yummy treats, and this time put them in my Norpro Mini Donut Pan*. And I covered them with chocolate ganache.
I had a little trouble with my first batch. The donuts seemed done at around 8-9 minutes, but they wouldn’t come out of the pan properly. A few more minutes of extra baking didn’t affect the taste, and helped the donuts to come out more easily. However, I would recommend greasing the pans thoroughly. Compared to all the past donut recipes I’ve made, this one was definitely the hardest to pop out of the pan.
This is still my favorite baked donut recipe. I recently found another one I’m planning on trying soon though.
