- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup pure maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons milk
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a mini donut pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
- In a separate bowl, combine milk, melted butter, egg, and vanilla extract.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Spoon or pipe the batter into the prepared mini donut pan, filling each cavity about two-thirds full.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the donuts cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While the donuts cool, whisk together powdered sugar, maple syrup, and milk in a small bowl until smooth. This is your maple glaze.
- Once the donuts are completely cool, dip each donut hole into the maple glaze, letting any excess drip off.
- Place the glazed donut holes back on the wire rack to allow the glaze to set.
Notes
- For a stronger maple flavor, you can add a few drops of maple extract to the batter.
- If you don’t have a mini donut pan, you can bake these in mini muffin tins, adjusting the baking time as needed.
- Store leftover donut holes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.
