Fact: I’m not a big fan of sickly sweet iced and sprinkled donuts but once every couple of years I will indulge in a warm cinnamon donut. The planets need to be aligned in order for this to happen: the donut needs to be freshly cooked, in something other than lard [uurrggh] and inevitably we will be at a country show.
I often make baked donuts at home as they are easy and oh so moreish. I also enjoying dusting off my mini bundt pan, which you’ll need one of to make these lovelies. I do like me some cinnamon.
This recipe is from preparedpantry.com and makes 12 mini bundt size donuts.
GATHER:
1 1/2 cups plain flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 large egg
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup caster sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
LET’S GET TO IT:
Preheat oven to 180C. Spray cooking spray onto mini bundt pan, ensuring it gets into all the nooks and crannies.
Whisk flour, baking powder, 1/2 cup sugar, and nutmeg in a medium bowl .
Beat the egg, melted butter, milk, and vanilla in another bowl. Add wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir just until combined – do not over-mix.
Spoon the batter into mini bundt pans and smooth the tops.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden.
While the donuts are baking, mix the remaining 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon in a bowl.
After donuts are cooked allow to stand for a few minutes in pan before removing and rolling in cinnamon sugar mix while still warm.

These donuts look delicious (I’ll eat just about anything with cinnamon and sugar) – you’re making me want to run out and buy a donut pan so that I can make these myself!
If cinnamon were a person it would be knighted – it rules!
That is a fantastic comment – thanks for infusing my day with awesomeness! 😉
I can’t resist donuts. However, I’ve never (dared) make my own. It’d be dangerous. There’d be no going back. I will have to make do with drooling over your post! Lovely work. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks! I’m scared of frying so would never attempt the real McCoy but these aren’t half bad 🙂
Yes, I am now part of the dark [donut] side. Thanks for commenting!
YUM! These look so good. I prefer baked donuts to fried one. I love your pan!
I prefer them bake, too. I’ll save the calories for hot chips instead. Mmmm….

Oh I love cinnamon so so much, million thanks for this recipe! These little guys look delicious!
Cinnamon rulez! Thanks for the blog lovin’
That’s an awesome little pan. Where did you get it?
Isn’t it fab? To be honest I can’t recall but it is Baker’s Secret, a brand readily available in most department stores in Oz.
Cool beans. I’ll see if I can find it =)
This recipe comes at perfect timing! I have been soo donut crazy at the moment but feel so guilty about their deep fried goodness. Need to get this pan in my life!
Yes, baked is soooo the way to go with donuts! Eaten warm you’d be hard pressed to notice the difference. I adore my mini bundt pan 🙂
I’m having the hardest time trying to get a pan like that.
My question is, you think it’s possible to bake them as muffins?
I really wanna try this.
Oooh, I’m honestly not sure if they would work as muffins, have only ever tried them in this pan. If you try it let me know how it goes 🙂
What a great idea to make this donuts as mini bundts. Love it!
Any excuse to use my mini bundt tin – I love it 🙂
My goodness! These look soooooo good! I ❤ donuts 🙂
And they are small so you can eat more 🙂
I’m going to have to bake those! Yum!
You’ll never look back – they are goooood!
I’ve never ever seen a tray where you can make teeny tiny bundts!!
I can’t even recall where I bought it now but I love it!
Made these – again (about the 10th time) – this morning for saturday morning tea – lovely and warm from the oven. Thanks 🙂
oooh, glad to hear you like them so much! I haven’t made these for a while, might just have to whip up a bunch tomorrow 🙂
