Ingredients Needed for Strawberry Donuts

  • 1/3 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup full fat milk
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup strawberries
  • 1-2 cups powdered icing sugar as needed
  • Pink food dye as needed
  • Pearl sprinkles optional
  • 1-2 tablespoons cream or milk

How to Make Baked Strawberry Donuts

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Spray your donut baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together egg, milk, melted butter and vanilla extract.
  • Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir together until well combined. Do not overmix.
  • You need to fill each doughnut mold about 3/4 of the way full as they will rise when baking.
  • Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the donuts are springy and golden brown.
  • Allow the donuts to cool for 2 minutes before removing from the pan and placing on the prepared cooling rack.

How to Make Glaze for Strawberry Donuts

  • For the glaze, puree the strawberries in a blender until smooth.
  • Place a fine mesh sieve above a bowl or measuring cup and pour the strawberries in.
  • Pour the strained strawberry puree into a small bowl and add confectioner’s sugar until you form a dippable icing.
  • Dip each donut into the glaze, hold above the bowl to let the glaze drip off, and then re-dip to get a thick coating.
  • Place the dipped donut on the cooling rack and immediately sprinkle on your choice of sprinkles.
  • Repeat with all donuts.

These homemade baked strawberry donuts are SO good and they're not from a cake mix! These incredibly easy, baked strawberry doughnuts come with a homemade, strawberry glaze that takes them up another notch not the amazing dessert scale!

Ingredients

Doughnuts

  • 1 c. all purpose flour
  • ⅓ c. granulated white sugar
  • 1 tsp. baking powder
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • 2 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 egg
  • ½ c. full fat milk
  • 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Glaze

  • ½ c. strawberries
  • 1–2 cups powdered icing sugar, as needed
  • pink food dye, as needed
  • pearl sprinkles, optional
  • 1–2 tablespoons cream or milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F.
  2. Spray your donut baking pan with nonstick cooking spray. Set aside. Place a cooling rack over a baking tray for when you cool and decorate your donuts. Set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, milk, melted butter and vanilla extract.
  5. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir together until well combined. Do not over-mix. You can use a measuring cup or piping bag to portion the batter into your donut pan - whatever you fill most comfortable with. You need to fill each cavity about ¾ of the way full as they will rise when baking.
  6. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the donuts are springy and golden brown.
  7. Allow the donuts to cool for 2 minutes before removing from the pan and placing on the prepared cooling rack.
  8. For the glaze, puree the strawberries in a blender until smooth.
  9. Place a fine mesh sieve above a bowl or measuring cup and pour the strawberries in. You can discard what the sieve catches or use it in another recipe.
  10. Pour the strained strawberry puree into a small bowl and add confectioner's sugar until you form a dippable icing. I also had to add about a tablespoon of cream, but adjust as needed. The strawberries add a faint pink color to the icing but I amped it up with a bit of pink dye.
  11. Dip each donut into the glaze, hold above the bowl to let the glaze drip off, and then re-dip to get a thick coating.
  12. Place the dipped donut on the cooling rack and immediately sprinkle on your choice of sprinkles.
  13. Repeat with all donuts.
  14. Let dry before packaging or serving.
