The Sugar Bubble: Baked Donuts

I wanted to try out my new donut maker (Sunbeam) that my friend got me as a present so I found a recipe online for a simple donut and tried them out. These donuts aren't fried, they're baked so they are a lot healthier than a regular donut. After I finished baking these, I ate them and they were surprisingly really good. They were a little bit more dense than a regular fried donut but still really tasty. If fried donuts are like cupcakes, because they're light and fluffy, baked donuts are like muffins, healthy and a little bit dense.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
9 tbsp butter, melted
3/4 cup milk
1 egg, lightly beaten

Directions:

Turn on your donut maker (Mine is Sunbeam) and wait until it is fully ready.

In a small bowl, add your flour, sugar, and baking powder. Mix with a whisk until fully combined.

Cut up your butter and melt in the microwave. Melt until there are no clumps, and then, measure out 9 tablespoons and add it into a small bowl. Add your milk and egg as well and mix well.

Add your wet ingredients into your dry ingredients and mix well.

Open your donut maker and spray each well with cooking spray. Or if you don't like the taste of cooking spray, mix a little vegetable oil with butter (equal parts) and dip a paper towel into the mixture and wipe each of the donut wells.

Pour half of the batter into a disposable piping bag with a metal tip and fill up each well. (Metal tip because the heat from the machine can melt your piping bag.)
