Description
Delicious and moist baked donuts infused with peanut butter and topped with a rich chocolate glaze.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup (85g) chocolate chips
- ⅓ cup (79ml) heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup (67g) peanut butter
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- ⅓ cup + 1 tablespoon milk
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup (124g) all purpose flour
- Chocolate sprinkles or chopped peanuts for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a donut pan with nonstick cooking spray. Alternatively, spray mini or regular sized muffin pans with nonstick cooking spray.
- Make the glaze first: heat heavy whipping cream to almost boiling (don’t let it fully boil; once you notice a slight simmer it’s done) on the stove or in the microwave. Pour over chocolate chips and let sit for one minute, then whisk until smooth. Set aside until ready to use.
- Stir together peanut butter, sugar, milk, vanilla, oil, and egg until smooth. Stir in baking powder and salt, then stir in flour.
- Place batter in a large gallon size ziploc bag and cut off one tip. Pipe into the donut pan.
- Bake for 8-12 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes in the pan then remove. Glaze once cooled.
- To glaze: dip donuts upside down in glaze. Sprinkle with nuts or sprinkles. Let set at room temperature.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
Notes
- Ensure the donuts are fully cooled before glazing to prevent the glaze from melting.
- You can use any type of milk as per your preference.
- For a healthier version, consider using natural peanut butter.
