Ingredients
Donuts
- ½ cup buttermilk
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 ⅓ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp vanilla
- almonds, granola for topping
Glaze
- ½ cup unsalted butter
- ½ cup firmly packed light brown sugar
- ¼ cup milk
- ¼ tsp salt
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F degrees. Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl.
- Add in butter, buttermilk, egg, and vanilla. Mix until just combined.
- Put the batter in a plastic baggie, or large piping bag (I just used a spoon!) and fill the donut pan – each donut cavity half full.
- Bake for 7 minutes, and remove from oven. Let sit for 5 minutes then transfer to cooling rack.
Glaze
- Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat. Add in the brown sugar. Stir constantly for 2 minutes.
- Add the milk. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla, salt and powdered sugar.
- Dip donut tops into the glaze and immediately sprinkle the topping of your choice. We used almonds and granola.
