The BEST Baked Strawberry Donuts recipe!
Did you know you can transform a simple cake mix into baked donuts? This simple, delicious recipe for Strawberry Coffee Cake Donuts is proof! Made with a basic strawberry cake mix, along with fresh strawberries and a few other ingredients you likely already have in your pantry and fridge, these strawberry donuts will be a new breakfast favorite!
Here’s how these simple, delicious Strawberry Cake Donuts come together:
How do I make batter for cake donuts?
Baking a batch of these donuts are pretty simple. The batter starts with a simple cake mix and adding a few additional goodies. You’ll also need donut pans, as these are pretty essential in the donut baking process.
I use and love these Wilton 6-cavity Non-Stick Donut Pans. I definitely recommend getting two pans as it’s convenient to have an extra pan to rotate out when the other batch is baking.
What’s the best way to add donut batter to a pan?
Once you have your batter prepared, spray the pan with non-stick baking spray and fill the donut cups (about 2/3 full). I recommend adding the batter to a resealable plastic bag (a gallon-sized Zip-loc bag works well) and then cut off the corner (about 1/2″ in.) with scissors. This will create a piping bag that will help fill the donut pan evenly without a big mess.
Top with some of the delicious streusel topping, and some additional chopped strawberries and get them baking. These donuts bake up beautifully, and will smell completely amazing as they come out of the oven!
How should I transfer the baked strawberry donuts?
Let them sit for a few minutes in the pan, and then gently remove from the donut pan with a butter knife or small rubber scraper.
Transfer to a cooling rack. Once cool, these babies are ready for glaze!
What ingredients do I need for donut glaze?
A simple donut glaze requires just three ingredients; powdered sugar, milk and vanilla. When mixing the glaze, add the milk gradually and sparingly to achieve your desired thickness.
Use a spoon to drizzle the baked strawberry donuts with the glaze. Give ’em as much or as little as you prefer.
