Baked Donuts With Vanilla Glaze

Baked Donuts with Vanilla Glaze – Simple baked donuts dipped with Vanilla glaze and topped with sprinkles

Hi everyone,

I hope everyone is healthy and staying safe at home. It’s a tough time and the entire world is going through such a stressful period.

Self-Isolation and Social distancing – as of now, our only option to prevent the spread of the deadly CORONA Virus. We are all in this together and let’s help our leaders in stopping the spread of the disease by staying at home.

Let’s use our quarantine period to spend more quality time with our family, call our loved ones, pick up a hobby, share household chores with your spouse and to take care of our health. COVID19 has slowed us down and made us realize the importance of self-hygiene. Let’s stay calm; Stay safe and Stay at home.

It’s great to be back here. Hopefully, this year I will be more regular in blogging. With all the shops closed, I know many of you will be missing sugary Donuts. This country has exposed me to international cuisine and one of my favorites is Donuts – especially the one filled with chocolates. If you are also like me and miss those sugary treats, then you need to check the below recipe which involves very simple ingredients at the kitchen pantry and it’s baked. Does that sound healthy than deep-fried ones? I adapted the recipe from aseasyasapplepie

Here to the recipe:

Donuts with Glaze

Dip the warm donuts in the glaze and top them with Sprinkles
Let it cool down completely in the cooling rack, around 30 minutes. This gives time for the glaze to set on donuts
