Oven Baked Cinnamon Donuts

I love donuts. I love donut shop donuts and I love those mini donuts covered in powdered sugar you can get at the grocery store.

I love sugar twists, raspberry filled, honey dip, boston cream… I haven’t met a donut I didn’t like.

My favourite though?

Cinnamon donuts.

If you too love cinnamon donuts you are going to simply love these oven baked cinnamon donuts.

Soft, fluffy and bursting with the warming combination of cinnamon and sugar.

They make for a quick breakfast treat and pair nicely with coffee after dinner.

All you need to get started is a donut pan!

Donuts are best served fresh the same day, but you can keep them for up to 3 days in an airtight container.

Give these baked cinnamon donuts a try and let me know what you think!

1/2 C. milk
1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/8 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 C. flour
large gallon freezer bag

Scoop the batter into the large gallon freezer bag. Seal and snip 1 corner with the kitchen scissors.

Gently squeeze the batter out of the bag and into each donut well (see photo).

Once each well is filled bake the donut for 12-14 minutes.

Remove form the oven, let cool and then remove from the donut pan and repeat with the leftover batter.

Once the donuts have cool, dip in the cinnamon and sugar mixture (if you are having trouble getting the cinnamon and sugar to stick, dampen a paper towel and gently pat the donut. You could also brush with melted butter if preferred and then cinnamon & sugar).
