  • 0.5 cup sugar
  • 1.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 0.5 cup milk

Vanilla Glaze Ingredients

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Preheat oven to 350˚F.
  2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon; set aside.
  3. In a small saucepan combine the milk, white vinegar, vanilla, egg, and butter.
  4. Cook over medium-heat, stirring constantly with a whisk until the butter melts, about one minute. Remove from heat.
  5. Add the milk mixture into the flour mixture; mix until combined.
  6. Using a large tablespoon, spoon the doughnut mixture into an ungreased doughnut pan.
  7. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  8. Remove from oven and immediately invert the pan onto a cooling rack.
  9. While the doughnuts are cooling, begin to work on the glaze.
Glaze
  1. Place all the glaze ingredients in a small saucepan and cook over medium-heat, whisking constantly just until combined and no lumps appear.
  2. Set the saucepan over a bowl filled with hot water to keep the glaze warm.
  3. Dip the doughnuts into the glaze, one at a time, and set on a rack, glaze side up. Place parchment paper or a tray underneath the rack to catch any drips.
  4. Give it a few minutes for the glaze to set before serving.
