When it arrives to breakfast pastries, it’s extremely hard to location a hierarchy on the products. Doughnuts, muffins, croissants, danishes, scones, cinnamon rolls — they are all so exceptionally scrumptious, and just about every noble in their possess right.
But when we begin crossing breakfast pastries, the real magic happens. Sweet cronuts (croissants + doughnuts) are miraculously doughy and flaky all in one particular. Or, a different wonderful croissant cross, the cragel, is a person that appeals to those people who enjoy a savory breakfast — and the carby creation is capable of holding a cream cheese spread and lox on prime.

So, my focus was of system piqued and sweet tooth activated when I observed that Allrecipes has a recipe for Donut Muffins. Domuffins? Muffdos? “Donut” quit me now. These are the fantastic treat to make on the weekend and savor throughout the 7 days. The overall recipe can take 40 minutes to make, and it states it yields 24 donut muffins, but when I place it to the check I got about 30! Furthermore, there is no rolling and shaping dough, which will make this an approachable recipe for even the most beginner bakers, myself included.
As I was baking, I could odor a heat spice aroma in my kitchen from the nutmeg, which is the “secret ingredient” in the muffin mix. The recipe promised that the mini muffins “taste just like cinnamon sugar doughnut holes,” and I’ll certainly vouch for that. These donut muffins, indeed, tasted like freshly baked cinnamon-sugar doughnut holes. They had a delicate, puffy interior, have been golden-brown on the outdoors and the cinnamon sugar took them to the future amount.
Here’s the final merchandise:
The muffin combine was quick to make. I included a pinch of excess baking powder for the reason that I’m cooking at significant-altitude listed here in Denver, aka the “Mile Substantial Town.”
Here’s what the batter appeared like. You never want to skimp on the nutmeg.

The enjoyable part will come when you dip the muffins into the melted margarine and then roll them into the cinnamon sugar to turn them into donut holes. I discovered that you could just dip the best in the margarine and it would drip down ample that the sugar mixture would flippantly coat the entire doughnut.
I like that the recipe takes advantage of a mini muffin tin, and could be altered a little to make other types of doughnut holes. I’m likely to test to make some apple cider ones arrive slide. One particular reviewer recommended creating vanilla and chocolate glazes for the muffins and sprinkling confectioners’ sugar to top the treats.
This recipe is what we take into account a diplomatic a single. Make some of these mini muffins and you will attraction to both the muffin-lovers and the doughnut fanatics in your household.
