Equipment
Wilton Doughnut Pan
Ingredients
2cupspancake mix(I used Krusteaz Buttermilk)
1/2cupall-purpose flour
1cupwhite granulated sugar
2largeeggs
1/3cupvegetable oil
3/4cupmilk(or buttermilk if you have it on hand)
1/4cupsour cream or plain yogurt(I used Greek Vanilla Yogurt)
2teaspoonsvanilla flavoring(I used Watkins Vanilla Extract)
cooking spray
For Glaze:
2cupspowdered sugar
4-5Tbspmilk
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
In a large bowl, combine all the dry ingredients--pancake mix, flour and sugar. Mix well and set aside.
In the mixing bowl of a stand mixer or a separate large bowl, mix all the wet ingredients--eggs, oil, milk, sour cream, and flavoring.
Using a mixer, slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet until a stiff batter is formed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to incorporate all the flour. Do not overmix.
Spray the doughnut pans with cooking spray, then spoon the batter into each ring. You can also use a piping bag if the spoon is too messy.
Bake for 10-12 minutes until they are light golden brown.
Repeat until all batter is used.
Remove doughnuts from pan to a cooling rack. While they cool, make the glaze.
For the Glaze:
Stir together powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons of milk in a bowl. Keep stirring until it all comes together. Add 1 tablespoon of milk at a time until it is pourable but still thick.
When doughnuts are cooled completely, dip them in the glaze and put them back on the cooling rack with a cookie sheet underneath to catch the drips.
