Description

Delightful mini powdered sugar doughnuts bring sweet nostalgia from childhood kitchens. Dusted with cloud-like sugar and baked to golden perfection, these bite-sized treats promise pure comfort with each delectable morsel you savor.


Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients:

  • ½ cup Dixie Crystals Extra Fine Granulated Sugar
  • 2 teaspoons (10 grams) baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon (1.5 grams) salt

Wet Ingredients:

  • 1 large egg
  • ¾ cup (180 milliliters) whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons (45 milliliters) vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons (10 milliliters) vanilla extract

Coating:

  • ½ cup (60 grams) Dixie Crystals Confectioners Powdered Sugar

Instructions

  1. Meticulously sift flour, baking powder, and salt together in a compact mixing vessel, creating a light, airy dry ingredient base.
  2. Vigorously whisk egg and granulated sugar in a separate bowl until the mixture transforms into a silky, pale emulsion.
  3. Incorporate milk, oil, and vanilla extract into the egg mixture, blending until the liquid components harmonize seamlessly.
  4. Gradually fold the sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring with gentle precision to achieve a velvety, lump-free batter.
  5. Thoroughly coat mini doughnut pans with a thin layer of cooking spray or butter to prevent potential sticking.
  6. Delicately transfer the batter into each doughnut cavity, filling approximately three-quarters of each mold to allow proper rising.
  7. Position the doughnut pan in a preheated oven set at 350°F (175°C) and bake for 7-9 minutes, monitoring until a inserted toothpick emerges pristine.
  8. While doughnuts are still warm, carefully transfer them into a large plastic bag containing powdered sugar.
  9. Gently tumble and shake the bag, ensuring each doughnut becomes completely enrobed in a delicate, snowy sugar coating.
  10. Serve these miniature treats immediately, presenting them at the peak of their delectable freshness.

Notes

  • Perfectly baked in just 7-9 minutes, these mini doughnuts are a quick and delightful treat that anyone can whip up at home.
  • Use fresh ingredients for the most tender and flavorful result, especially ensuring your baking powder is not expired.
  • Gently coat warm doughnuts in powdered sugar for a classic, melt-in-your-mouth finish that adds irresistible sweetness.
  • Versatile recipe works with both mini doughnut pans and electric doughnut makers, making it super convenient for any kitchen.
  • Store leftover doughnuts in an airtight container, but they’re best enjoyed fresh on the same day for maximum texture and taste.
  • Optional flavor boosters include adding a dash of cinnamon to the batter or experimenting with different extracts like almond or lemon.
