making doughnuts with the Babycakes Donut Maker

Step 1

Prepare the Donut Maker with non-stick spray, and heat the Donut Maker according to the instructions.

Step 2

Put in mixing bowl and combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the half and half or milk, egg, vanilla, and oil and blend just until the ingredients are mixed well and dough is creamy:

Step 4

Immediately scoop the batter into a disposable decorating bag and close with a rubber band. Snip the tip and pipe a ring of dough into each of the molds. OR, just use a spoon to fill the molds with about two tablespoons of batter each.

Step 5

Close the lid and bake for 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the Donut Maker and rest on a wire rack.

Step 6

Top with icing, confectioner's sugar or cinnamon sugar.

Step 7

Yield: 9 doughnuts (which means one batch plus three since the Donut Maker holds six. I think. I think mine are slightly too big since they have those ridges around the middle, so maybe you can get 10.)
