Bake Along#47 - Cinnamon Sugar Donuts


When I saw this Bake-Along, I tell myself, I am so so definetely gonna join.. Why? Simply because my gal adores donuts. But it's those colouful donuts, full of sweets. Alamak. So I am thinking I could make a small amount of cinnamon sugar and a small amount of her favorites with this recipe and not having to worry about how to finish 1 recipe!!

I bake them in both mini donut pans and mini muffins pans. I always wonder, hw come my donuts can never brown nicely, always a pale yellow.. Why why why. Luckily I am coating them.. Sad =(
I used melted chocolate for the donut, added some sprinkles for my lil ones. Cinnamon sugar are for the 'older' ones.


I tried the donuts plain, just nice and very fragrant though I didn't add any vanilla essence. Feels like a mixture of bread and cake texture. Yummy.. Those with cinnamon sugar (I jus add a tsp of cinnamon powder to 2Tbsp sugar) is super fragrance. But I only made 4 cos it is so sinful to keep popping into my mouth. The balance, yes, topped with melted white choc and sprinkles for my gal & neighbor's kids... =)






I am submitting this post to Bake-Along event hosted by JoyceLena and Zoe.

Hi Priscilla,

You made so much effort decorating your donuts. Comparing with yours, mine are so plain :D

Nice to know that you are going to bake-along with us for the fruit buckle theme... I didn't know much about fruit buckle until Joyce suggested this theme.

Very pretty, am sure the kids love these...I didn't want to join this even because my boys are bigger and not so into donuts now and I sure am not going to tempt myself with a whole load of donuts lol!
