Glazed Baked Doughnuts


I was originally going to make Irish Soda Bread this weekend to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, but then I just really (really) wanted a (lot of) doughnut(s).

And if I dye the doughnut icing green, that makes them Irish, right? (Note: the food coloring did not work out so great on these....they do not look green at all, so go ahead and ignore that part...thanks..)



I found this recipe on another blog called MomAdvice , but tweaked it a little.

Here are my Ingredients:

2 cups white whole wheat flour
3/4 cup organic (unbleached) sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup coconut milk (this kind from Trader Joe's)
2 organic cage-free eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the icing:
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons water
1/2 tsp. almond extract (or you can use vanilla)


Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray doughnut pan. Combine dry ingredients. Mix in wet ingredients with a wooden spoon or mixer. Spoon into doughnut pan. Bake for 10 minutes. This recipe makes a dozen doughnuts, 2 pans of 6 each.
Let cool slightly, then flip onto a cooling rack with foil or wax paper underneath. Mix icing ingredients together. Dip doughnuts (or drizzle) with icing. The foil will catch any icing that spills over the sides.

Pretend these are an Irish tradition and you didn't just want several doughnuts.... and enjoy!
